The Situation
Why You're Here
You already know the headlines. Here's what they mean for your operations team:
CIP-003-9 is now in effect.
Low-impact BES Cyber Systems now require documented vendor remote access controls and supply chain governance. If you're a municipal utility or cooperative, "low impact" no longer means "low effort."
CIP-012-2 mandates encrypted protection.
Real-time operational data between control centers is now a regulated surface and state-sponsored campaigns like Salt Typhoon are already targeting the telecom infrastructure it travels through.
CIP-015-1 requires INSM for high-impact systems.
With 18-month procurement lead times for OT-native platforms, the evaluation window is closing. NERC has already signaled expansion to EACMS and PACS by June 2026.
And here's the threat no one talks about: NERC's 2026 Roadmap explicitly warns of "aggregation risk." One compromised PLC at a small generation site is an incident. Fifty shut down simultaneously through a shared vendor pathway is a grid stability event. Your perimeter won't stop what happens inside. The penalty ceiling? $1.54 million per day, per violation. NERC's violation backlog dropped 50% in 2025. They have bandwidth to find problems now.
Why OThello Assess
Because "Black Box" Compliance Won't Survive Your Next Audit.
Built for OT, Not Adapted from IT
Designed around SCADA, PLCs, RTUs, and legacy systems. Maps your environment without touching production.
Your ops team doesn't change a single setting to get visibility.
AI-Assisted, Assessor-Driven
Your assessor stays in control while AI accelerates the heavy lifting.
Auditors trust human judgment backed by evidence, not AI guesswork.
Deterministic Scoring
Every score comes from a deterministic engine, not a black box. Each number is traceable to the evidence and reasoning behind it.
When NERC asks "why this score?", you show the logic chain. Not an explanation you scramble to write later.
One Clear Output: An Audit-Ready Report
No spreadsheets. No scattered files. One defensible report that shows exactly where you stand against each CIP requirement, the evidence behind every score, and a prioritized remediation roadmap.
When auditors ask why, the answer is already in the document.
