Achieving Real-Time OT Monitoring and Mitigation with Dragos, Sentar, and Siemens Government Technologies: A MOSAICS Compatible Solution
Summary: Dragos, Sentar, and Siemens Government Technologies built a joint OT monitoring and mitigation solution compatible with the MOSAICS reference architecture, aimed at the 2022 NDAA's direction for military departments to invest in OT cyber defense and map Defense Critical Task Critical Assets. The solution spans four layers: cyber mission thread analysis, hardened control systems, MOSAICS-based continuous monitoring through the Dragos Platform, and real-time mitigation via Siemens SIBERprotect, which uses machine-speed automation to respond in milliseconds and operates at Purdue Levels 1-3 independently of the site network.
Bottom line: SIBERprotect executes a predetermined action sequence in milliseconds and can act on Dragos threat intelligence before an attack lands, a response time no human-staffed SOC can match on control-system networks. The 2022 NDAA's mandate to map mission-relevant terrain at sufficient granularity for mission thread analysis sets the bar your OT visibility program will be measured against.
