OT / ICS Security & NCA OTCC Compliance — Saudi Arabia

Industrial plants in Saudi Arabia — energy, water, manufacturing, utilities — were built for uptime and safety, not for internet-era threats. As IT and OT converge, a single compromised engineering workstation can reach a SCADA controller. Skyline secures operational technology (OT) and industrial control systems (ICS) in line with the National Cybersecurity Authority's Operational Technology Cybersecurity Controls (OTCC-1:2022).

The NCA OTCC framework sets minimum requirements across strategy, people, process and technology — spanning four main domains and dozens of controls — for entities that own or operate critical national infrastructure. We help you meet them practically: starting with passive OT asset discovery (because active scanning can disrupt fragile process networks), then mapping your environment to a Purdue-model architecture, segmenting IT from OT, and locking down the remote-access pathways attackers love.

• OTCC readiness — gap assessment against OTCC-1:2022 with a prioritised, plant-safe remediation roadmap.
• Asset visibility — passive discovery and inventory of PLCs, RTUs, HMIs and DCS without disturbing operations.
• Segmentation & architecture — Purdue zone-and-conduit design, industrial firewalls, and secured IT/OT boundaries.
• Secure remote access — role-based, MFA-protected, logged and justified access in line with OTCC expectations.
• Monitoring & response — OT-aware threat detection and an incident playbook that respects safety and process continuity.

Crucially, we treat OT differently from IT — safety and availability come first, change is controlled, and nothing is scanned or patched without process-engineering sign-off. Delivered for plants and facilities across Riyadh, the Eastern Province, Jubail, Yanbu and the wider Kingdom, vendor-neutral and aligned with OTCC and IEC 62443 good practice.
