Case Study: U.S. Power Company achieves stronger SCADA cyber security with Honeywell's Vulnerability Assessment

U.S. Power Company Works with Honeywell to Perform a SCADA Cyber Security Vulnerability Assessment

U.S. Power Company needed external expertise to assess cyber security risks in its SCADA and process control systems because its in-house audit team lacked the combined process-control and cyber security experience. The company engaged Honeywell and used Honeywell’s Cyber Security Vulnerability Assessment (CSVA) service to evaluate its SCADA environment against industry standards and best practices.

Honeywell’s Industrial Cyber Security team conducted a collaborative CSVA, identified high-level risks, delivered specific risk rankings, and recommended prioritized remediation actions. As a result, U.S. Power Company obtained a high-quality, expert assessment that clarified true risk exposure, ensured compliance with its audit standards, and enabled the company to prioritize and coordinate mitigation activities to reduce vulnerability and shorten potential recovery time.
