Description
This tender, originating from Belgium and published on the TED (Tenders Electronic Daily) platform, seeks a highly experienced Consultancy OT Security Lead. The Publications Office of the European Union, acting as the contracting authority, is looking to engage a specialist to provide expert guidance and leadership in the realm of Operational Technology (OT) security.
This procurement is for consultancy services, implying a need for strategic advice, assessment, and potentially the development of frameworks and policies rather than the supply of physical goods or standard IT security solutions.
The role of an OT Security Lead typically involves a deep understanding of industrial control systems (ICS) and SCADA environments, which are distinct from traditional IT infrastructure. Bidders are expected to demonstrate a proven track record in assessing OT security vulnerabilities, identifying risks specific to industrial environments, and recommending robust mitigation strategies. This will likely include expertise in areas such as network segmentation for OT, secure remote access, incident response planning for OT environments, and compliance with relevant industrial security standards. The successful candidate will be expected to provide strategic direction, contribute to the development of OT security roadmaps, and potentially oversee the implementation of security measures, ensuring the resilience and integrity of critical operational systems.
