Comprehensive industrial cybersecurity requires knowledge of complicated system integrations; the EIS Cyber team has this knowledge.
To ensure your digital transformation is implemented securely, you need a partner who values your data as much as you do.
At EIS Cyber, we understand that if the transformation is not secured, the vulnerabilities introduced far outweigh the operational benefits, such as:
- External accessibility to sensitive equipment controls
- Loss of process control and intellectual property
- Denial and/or reduction of process system controls
- Digital safety protections (for both equipment and personnel) degraded
- Inability to maintain business continuity

The First Step Towards Digital Security
Return on Security Investment
What is Return on Security Investment?
Return on Security Investment (ROSI) specifically evaluates the return on investment for cybersecurity efforts. While security investments are crucial for any organization, many security teams find it challenging to measure the tangible benefits these investments provide.
Why Is It Essential to Measure ROSI?
Organizations face a broad spectrum of cybersecurity threats, including ransomware and supply chain attacks. While they understand the necessity of investing in security to manage cyber risks and prevent breaches, identifying the right areas for investment and demonstrating the value of past security efforts can be difficult for security leaders.
Quantifying the value of cybersecurity is important for a few different reasons, including:
Justifying Past Investments
By calculating the ROSI of previous security investments, security leaders can show management and the board that the funds were wisely invested.
Proving the Need for Future Investment
Assessing the potential ROSI of proposed security investments can strengthen the argument for future funding.
Strategic Security Investment
Comparing the ROSI of different proposed investments enables executives to select the solutions that provide the greatest potential value to the organization.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to the OT cybersecurity questions manufacturers ask us most, and how EIS Cyber helps you protect your operations.
How is OT cybersecurity different from IT security?
Operational technology controls physical processes, so availability and safety come first. OT environments often run legacy or proprietary systems that cannot simply be patched, scanned, or rebooted like office IT. EIS Cyber takes an OT-centric approach, so every recommendation fits how your plant actually runs.
We are not sure where to start. What is the first step?
Most clients start with a Cyber Maturity Assessment. Performed against the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, it analyzes your security posture across five core areas and shows where scarce resources can best be applied. Repeated periodically, it becomes a clear indicator of progress over time.
Can you test our systems without disrupting production?
Yes. Our certified ethical hackers scope and design the most effective real-world test of your systems without jeopardizing your live running environment. At the end, we show you what we did and how we did it, and help you address the issues we find.
Patching OT systems is hard. How do you handle it?
EIS designs, deploys, and maintains Patch Management Solutions tailored to your environment. That includes the documentation, the supporting infrastructure, and patch schedules that work with your operational demands, paired with vulnerability management that ranges from simple monitoring to fully automated solutions.
We do not have a dedicated cybersecurity team. Can EIS Cyber help?
Yes. EIS Cyber can serve in a purely advisory capacity or deliver a full implementation. Engagements range from a single part-time resource for about 3 months, to multiple part-time resources for 3 to 6 months, to multiple dedicated resources for 6 to 12 months. Use the slider above to compare the options.
How do we justify the cost of cybersecurity investments?
Return on Security Investment (ROSI) helps you show the value of past investments, prove the need for future funding, and compare proposed solutions. Fill in the form on this page to get our free ROSI guide and workbook, or partner with EIS to calculate it together.
Will your solutions interfere with our existing systems and vendors?
Our decades of experience with OT vendors means you will not have to worry about solutions interfering with your crucial systems. Our architects and engineers can map the data flows into and out of your Industrial Control System, and help you build a new network or rebuild an existing one with the right balance of availability and security.
What happens if the worst happens?
EIS can analyze your unique OT needs and build a Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity plan, including backup and recovery solutions, OT-specific incident response tabletop exercises, regulatory compliance, and testing and verification of your backups.
Which industries do you support?
We support Biotechnology, Medical Device, Food & Beverage, Chemical, Pharmaceutical, Personalized Medicine, Metals & Mining, Oil & Gas, Pulp & Paper, Renewable Energy, Water Management, and Power Generation.
