CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE & INDUSTRIAL
/Industrial risk accumulates quietly. Small control gaps compound across people, vendors, and systems until an incident forces visibility. When continuity is the mandate, the standard is not “respond fast” — it is “stay stable under pressure.”
Control the environment. Preserve continuity. Keep response defensible.
Archer Knox supports critical operations as a control and decision-support function—validating threats, tightening procedures, and aligning escalation across safety, security, operations, and leadership.
The objective is disciplined stability: verified signal, clear ownership, and documentation that holds up under regulatory review, insurer scrutiny, and post-incident investigation—without disrupting operational tempo.
Sector Constraints
- Safety dominance: response options are bounded by human and process safety.
- Continuity mandate: downtime carries operational, contractual, and public consequence.
- Vendor complexity: third-party access expands the attack and failure surface.
- Regulatory exposure: post-incident review is structured and often unforgiving.
- Mixed environments: cyber, physical, and insider risk converge on the same outcomes.
Where We Integrate
- Threat validation: credible signal vs. noise; explicit confidence and escalation.
- Incident structure: response cadence, decision rights, and operational coordination.
- Control discipline: access controls, vendor handling, and documentation standards.
- Protective posture: facilities, key personnel, and sensitive operations risk triage.
- Defensible reporting: post-incident narratives aligned to regulator and insurer review.
