AnzenOT Journey…
has been years in the making, with work and industry experience gained across five continents.
Why AnzenOT
Working together managing and assessing OT risks across diverse industrial environments, AnzenOT founders, Kristin Demoranville and Stuart King experienced first-hand the challenge of measuring the impacts of risks across a wide and varied range facilities in different geographical regions.
“Traditional” Q&A risk assessments were unable to capture the nuances of different controls, and there were limited ways to capture and quantify the different scenarios that might result in incidents.
Further, cyber risk is one aspect but for industrial facilities there’s a close relationship between cybersecurity, physical security, and safety.
With these constraints in mind, Stuart and Kristin set out to develop a solution that lowers the barrier to industrial risk assessment, creating AnzenOT, a platform that profiles industrial facilities and makes it a matter of a few mouse clicks to model and quantify risk scenarios, produce playbooks, and take action.
