Industrial Defender’s OT platform now baselines internal traffic for CIP-015 and verifies prioritized patch playbooks.

Industrial Defender released internal network security monitoring and Risk Signal in its OT cybersecurity platform, aimed at NERC CIP-015-1. The monitoring learns normal device communications and flags new connections, unexpected protocols, unusual volume and unknown devices, then links anomalies to configuration, vulnerability and risk data and stores review records for audit evidence. Risk Signal builds prioritized remediation playbooks from a customer’s existing risk model, publishes them to work-management systems, confirms patches were applied and refreshes the risk score. FERC-approved CIP-015-1 requires internal traffic monitoring and data retention and covers high and medium impact BES Cyber Systems. The company plans to demonstrate the features at GridSecCon 2026 in Orlando.
