Semantically similar based on skill content — not just same category
performing-ot-network-security-assessment
This skill covers conducting comprehensive security assessments of Operational Technology (OT) networks including SCADA systems, DCS architectures, and industrial control system communication paths. It addresses the Purdue Reference Model layers, identifies IT/OT convergence risks, evaluates firewall rules between zones, and maps industrial protocol traffic (Modbus, DNP3, OPC UA, EtherNet/IP) to detect misconfigurations, unauthorized connections, and attack surfaces in critical infrastructure.
performing-ot-vulnerability-assessment-with-claroty
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.
detecting-attacks-on-scada-systems
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.
implementing-patch-management-for-ot-systems
This skill covers implementing a structured patch management program for OT/ICS environments where traditional IT patching approaches can cause process disruption or safety hazards. It addresses vendor compatibility testing, risk-based patch prioritization, staged deployment through test environments, maintenance window coordination, rollback procedures, and compensating controls when patches cannot be applied due to operational constraints or vendor restrictions.
performing-vulnerability-scanning-with-nessus
Performs authenticated and unauthenticated vulnerability scanning using Tenable Nessus to identify known vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, default credentials, and missing patches across network infrastructure, servers, and applications. The scanner correlates findings with CVE databases and CVSS scores to produce prioritized remediation guidance. Activates for requests involving vulnerability scanning, Nessus assessment, patch compliance checking, or automated vulnerability detection.
