The Need for Security in Operations apart from IT in Industry

Collaboration between Information Technology (IT) and Operation Technology (OT) requires a vast perspective to provide comprehensive security. Where OS or Antivirus updates are commonplace and have minimal obstacles in IT, they can result in critical issues that significantly hinder production KPIs if executed with the same methods in an OT environment.

Negligence in securing OT devices with legacy operational systems results in unprotected devices that are easily attacked by cyber-attacks. For this reason, convergence is needed in cybersecurity planning in a digitalized industry by first separating the IT zone from the OT.

The following are several activities to prevent cyber security in Information Technology (IT) and Operation Technology (OT) :

 

SEGMENTATION / ZONATION

This segmentation is called the Demilitarized Zone [DMZ] or Zone 3.5 in the Purdue model. This zone becomes a perimeter protector for the OT segment as a safety compliance tool. A capable NextGen Firewall [NGFW] is needed to filter all data packets leaving or entering the OT zone, either from IT or the internet. The selected NGFW must have a Virtual Patching feature to mitigate the need for OT devices that cannot be updated like IT devices.

VISIBILITY

The next step is to identify assets in the OT segment. This step is required to determine what digital security protocols are needed and how many assets need security. No security vendor provides this entire line of facilities. Therefore, it is necessary to implement solutions that can collaborate between principals, for example, Fortinet’s collaboration with Claroty for Asset Discovery.

SECURE REMOTE ACCESS

Remote access is now easily accessible. There are various tools available on machines in the factory to make adjustments remotely. Of course, this “direct” path also needs to be secured with an NGFW or Secure Switch.

ROLE BASED ACCESS CONTROL

Network Access Control, Authenticator/Token can regulate the access level to OT devices for each company personnel. This solution can also set the specifications of what devices can access OT zones or devices. This assessment of the company personnel’s access level is a form of security hardening. It also can be a basis for accountability that the company entrusts to personnel who require remote access to do routine maintenance or adjust device functions.

INSIDER THREAT

What about threats from within? For example, when OT device operators unknowingly commit violations or do not realize how crucial the impact of their negligence is due to a lack of security protocol training. EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) solutions are needed to mitigate direct human interaction aspects, such as PLC, DCS, SCADA, and HMI.

MANAGEMENT LEVEL REPORT AND SECURITY CENTRALIZATION

This comprehensive level of security certainly requires significant and sustainable investment. Therefore, there is a need for a comprehensive report that can be assessed by management. The right SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) dashboard is a solution to this problem. We also recommend SOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response) with its playbook feature to simplify security centralization and automation.

ADVANCED PERSISTENT THREAT 

Even the most sophisticated security system does not escape the risk of Zero-Day Threats which requires special attention. Two mitigations for this problem are the Sandbox solution, which will quarantine unknown signatures, and the Deceptor, which will imitate the original environment but “trick” it. If a facility is attacked, it will happen in a quarantined zone and separated from the original production environment.

 

In implementing various security solutions, especially in the Operational Technology aspect, good integration with the Information Technology team is needed so that operational problems do not occur.

Solution for Connecting Analog Handy Talky (HT) to HT PTT-Over-Cellular (PoC) System

Communication is crucial, especially for industry/business that requires field team coordination. Companies usually use Handy Talky (HT) to coordinate, but with increasingly rapid technological developments, you can communicate more practically and efficiently using Handy Talky POC. One of the best POC solutions providers, Hytera, has developed and introduced PTT-over-Cellular (PoC) or cellular-based HT via GSM data or Wi-Fi as an alternative coordination solution between users.

With PTT over Cellular (PoC), complicated frequency permits are no longer required, able to send live video reports, save infrastructure investment funds, and enjoy a wide range of communication. Handy Talky POC solution will benefit various industrial sectors such as public safety, manufacturing, healthcare, and hospitality, especially in urban areas that are very cell signal friendly.

But what if a company, industry, or business already uses analog Handy Talky? “Can our functional company’s analog HT (frequencies) be combined with HT PoC and communicate directly?”

 

The answer is it’s impossible to communicate/connect directly because of the difference in signal types between the two, where the frequency is narrowband and cellular is broadband. A connector is needed to facilitate meetings/communication between the two, which is called a gateway.

 

Also read about: HYTERA PoC Handy Talkie (HT) Radio Solution for Unlimited Communication

 

At Hytera, there are two gateway options, namely BN100 or MPUC. However, because these two products have not yet entered Indonesia, ACS Group has a solution by using a gateway from SOLIDTRONIC with POCSTARS as the communication system/application.

 

POCSTARS

For communication, Hytera created the Hytalk application as an exclusive tool for communication between various users. We need an additional application for communication, namely POCSTARS. This third-party application can be used on various PoC brands. Apart from being implemented on-premises, this application is also available in subscription mode via the Cloud, which is different from Hytalk because it has two options, including:

  1. 1-year subscription where users must renew the license every year. With this license, users can transfer their POCSTARS ID to any device.
  2. Lifetime subscription where users only need to pay once for lifetime use of the device. This license binds the IMEI and cannot be transferred to other devices.

 

Apart from managing/creating communication groups and monitoring conditions via pull video and location with GPS, POCSTARS can connect communications between frequencies and cellular via gateway box devices with SOLIDTRONIC.

SOLIDTRONIC

SOLIDTRONIC functions as a translator so audio sent by analog radios can be received by radios based on cellular signals and vice versa. By using SOLIDTRONIC, information sent by analog radio can be received on the PoC.

How to connect it with SOLIDTRONIC?

Before installation, several things need to be prepared, namely:

  1. SOLIDTRONIC device with the POCSTARS application (1 Year Subscription) installed. One SOLIDTRONIC device can only connect to one analog radio channel. Please adjust how many channels you need.
  2. LAN cable to connect SOLIDTRONIC to the local internet network.
  3. Rig-type radio based on analog frequencies to function as a repeater (example: Motorola XiR 8260). We recommend a Rig type radio for more optimal power.
  4. Audio cable to connect SOLIDTRONIC to your Rig type Radio.

Note: Make sure there are pins in the audio slot/plug on the radio so that the audio cable can be adjusted.

Once all the components are ready, install them according to their respective ports. Please remember that each SOLIDTRONIC can only connect one channel/site. It needs to be adjusted according to your needs.
