Address a weakness without interrupting the line
A manufacturer may be able to patch an office laptop this afternoon but have one maintenance window a quarter for an engineering workstation. A supplier may also need remote access to keep a line running. We agree scope with IT, engineering and plant owners so findings reflect how each site actually operates.
How Vambrace can help
Review supplier access into production
We can map the route from a maintenance supplier’s account through remote access to an engineering workstation. A scoped test of the agreed IT boundary helps identify excessive permissions or a route that bypasses existing controls.
Infrastructure penetration testing →Plan fixes around maintenance windows
For agreed IT assets, managed scanning ranks weaknesses by exposure and operational impact. We help identify interim controls if a fix must wait, then recheck it. Live operational equipment needs its own engineering-approved scope and method.
Managed vulnerability scanning →Make alerts useful to the plant team
Our SOC can investigate unusual activity on supported endpoints and raise it with the right site contact. We agree escalation and containment authority in advance, so engineering retains control of decisions that affect production.
