Seeking OT systems
- [Instructor] Prior to testing an operational technology infrastructure, the team will first need to locate the devices. In this segment, we'll review various tools and techniques used to gather information on industrial control and SCADA systems. Because of the critical nature of operational technology systems, it's essential to have situational awareness, which is up to date information on the status and activities within an industrial control system and SCADA network. Let's talk about some of the activity used in operational technology discovery. One thing you'll want to do is create a network map and record detailed information about the infrastructure, such as logical topology, device types, vendor make, and model information. As we can see here, this gives us an idea of what the network involves, including the connections and the infrastructure. The team might also use vendor provided tools along with publicly available tools to identify operational technology assets. For…
