Why Us?

Cyber-security in the process industry hasn’t typically been given enough consideration or investment. Often, until it’s too late.
There are many examples where cyber security incidents affecting operational technology have caused serious consequences for organisations.

Not only that, governments have woken up to the potential serious consequences industrial cyber security breaches can have on health, safety and the environment.
As a result, many companies must demonstrate to regulators that they are doing everything that is reasonably practical to protect our society.

Why companies come to Tekgem

They understand the risks posed to their Operational Technology (OT) from cyber-security (or lack of it) but recognise that they don’t have the skills, time or experience in effectively mitigating cyber-security issues.

We specialise in providing cyber security services for operational technology, as well the underlying highly available and reliable infrastructure platforms and services that underpin them.

Cutting through the Jargon

There are a myriad of cyber security resources, standards, frameworks, technologies and acronyms out there. We cut through that jargon and get straight to the point. Ensuring you are meeting your responsibilities with regulators.
