Protecting Global Data Centers: Achieving High-Fidelity Visibility and Proactive Risk Management Across Mission-Critical Cyber-Physical Systems
Protecting Global Data Centers: Achieving High-Fidelity Visibility and Proactive Risk Management Across Mission-Critical Cyber-Physical Systems
11 PagesThis case study examines how a global data center provider secured a large, distributed estate of IoT and OT systems supporting power, cooling, access, environmental monitoring, and building management. The organization lacked complete device visibility, faced default passwords, vulnerable firmware, rogue assets, and strict uptime requirements. Phosphorus delivered agentless discovery, detailed risk assessment, credential and firmware remediation, continuous monitoring, and ServiceNow integration without disrupting operations. The deployment uncovered unknown devices and critical vulnerabilities, improved compliance, accelerated remediation, centralized CPS management, and provided a scalable security model for expanding facilities worldwide.
