This skill covers performing vulnerability assessments in OT environments using the Claroty xDome platform for comprehensive asset discovery, risk scoring, vulnerability correlation, and remediation prioritization. It addresses passive vulnerability identification through traffic analysis, active safe querying of OT devices, integration with CVE databases and ICS-CERT advisories, and risk-based prioritization that accounts for operational impact and compensating controls.

Detect anomalies in DNP3 (Distributed Network Protocol 3) communications used in SCADA systems by monitoring for unauthorized control commands, firmware update attempts, protocol violations, and deviations from baseline traffic patterns using deep packet inspection and machine learning approaches.

Deploy and configure the Dragos Platform for OT network monitoring, leveraging its 600+ industrial protocol parsers, intelligence-driven threat detection analytics, and asset visibility capabilities to protect ICS environments against threat groups like VOLTZITE, GRAPHITE, and BAUXITE.

This skill covers implementing North American Electric Reliability Corporation Critical Infrastructure Protection (NERC CIP) compliance controls for Bulk Electric System (BES) cyber systems. It addresses asset categorization (CIP-002), electronic security perimeters (CIP-005), system security management (CIP-007), configuration management (CIP-010), supply chain risk management (CIP-013), and the 2025 updates including mandatory MFA for remote access and expanded low-impact asset requirements.

This skill covers hardening and securing process historian servers (OSIsoft PI, Honeywell PHD, GE Proficy, AVEVA Historian) in OT environments. It addresses network placement across Purdue levels, access control for historian interfaces, data replication through DMZ using data diodes or PI-to-PI connectors, SQL injection prevention in historian queries, and integrity protection of process data used for safety analysis, regulatory reporting, and process optimization.

Deploy and configure Tofino industrial firewalls from Belden/Hirschmann to protect SCADA systems and PLCs using deep packet inspection for OT protocols including Modbus, EtherNet/IP, OPC, and S7comm, enforcing granular access control between ICS security zones.

This skill covers detecting cyber attacks targeting Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems including man-in-the-middle attacks on industrial protocols, unauthorized command injection into PLCs, HMI compromise, historian data manipulation, and denial-of-service against control system communications. It leverages OT-specific intrusion detection systems, industrial protocol anomaly detection, and process data analytics to identify attacks that traditional IT security tools miss.

This skill covers detecting anomalies in Modbus/TCP and Modbus RTU communications in industrial control systems. It addresses function code monitoring, register range validation, timing analysis, unauthorized client detection, and deep packet inspection for malformed Modbus frames. The skill leverages Zeek with Modbus protocol analyzers, Suricata IDS with OT rules, and custom Python-based detection using Markov chain models for normal Modbus transaction sequences.

This skill covers conducting cybersecurity assessments specific to oil and gas facilities including upstream (exploration/production), midstream (pipeline/transport), and downstream (refining/distribution) operations. It addresses SCADA systems controlling pipeline operations, DCS for refinery process control, safety instrumented systems for hazardous processes, remote terminal units at unmanned wellhead sites, and compliance with API 1164, TSA Pipeline Security Directives, IEC 62443, and NIST Cybersecurity Framework for critical infrastructure.

This skill covers designing and implementing security zones and conduits for industrial automation and control systems (IACS) per IEC 62443-3-2. It addresses zone partitioning based on risk assessment, assigning Security Level targets (SL-T), designing conduit security controls, implementing microsegmentation with industrial firewalls, and validating zone architecture through traffic analysis and penetration testing against the Purdue Reference Model.
