Problem
Insecure Remote Access
Industrial sites frequently depend on remote support connections that were added for maintenance convenience before formal OT security controls existed.
Typical impact
What this can affect
- unclear third-party access routes
- shared credentials or weak account ownership
- limited session logging
- uncontrolled pathways into control assets
Engineering response
Trace each support path from user identity to target asset, then examine authorisation, network restriction, logging, disablement and operational dependency.
