Disaster Resilience: Preparing for the Unexpected

Disasters can come in many forms, from natural disasters like power outages, human error or cyber attacks. A disaster resilience plan for your OT systems ensures you can recover quickly and minimise downtime. Here's what a good plan should include:

  • Risk Assessment: Identify potential threats and vulnerabilities in your OT systems.
  • Data Backups: Regularly back up critical data to a secure, off-site location.
  • System Redundancy: Implement redundant systems or components for vital functions.
  • Disaster Recovery Plan: Outline clear steps for restoring operations after a disaster.
  • Testing and Training: Regularly test your disaster recovery plan and train personnel on its execution.

Change Management: Adapting While Maintaining Stability

OT systems are constantly evolving. New equipment gets added, software updates are implemented, and processes are refined. Change management ensures these changes are made smoothly and with minimal disruption. A strong change management process involves:

  • Change Control Board: Establish a board to review and approve all proposed changes to OT systems.
  • Impact Assessment: Evaluate the potential impact of any proposed change.
  • Documentation and Communication: Clearly document changes and communicate them effectively to all stakeholders.
  • Version Control: Maintain version control of software and configurations for easy rollback if necessary.

Benefits of a Proactive Approach

By implementing disaster resilience and change management practices, you can:

  • Minimise Downtime: Recover quickly from disruptions and get your operations back online faster.
  • Reduce Costs: Prevent costly delays and lost production due to outages.
  • Improve Safety: Mitigate risks associated with system failures.
  • Enhance Security: Change management helps identify and address potential security vulnerabilities.
