Secure Your IoT & Other Smart Building Features
Expert Guidance to Understand Your Cybersecurity Risks
Building automation systems have made modern buildings more efficient than ever. But they’ve also increased the attack surface as hackers exploit Internet-connected devices to gain access and pivot into critical environments. Our experienced consultants help you create a multilayered defense strategy that maximizes the control and insights available through building access, HVAC, lighting, fire suppression and other systems without compromising information security.

Practical Security Solutions for Integrated Building Systems
The list of known vulnerabilities in smart building systems keeps growing. We work with installers, designers and facilities managers to create a clear plan for assessing your risks and vulnerabilities. Then we’ll help you develop a road map to operate your systems securely going forward. We answer key questions including:
- What are the vulnerabilities present in my specific system?
- Which stakeholders should be involved in creating our facility security plan?
- What are best practices for recurring security tests?
- How can we prepare to recover quickly from a cyberattack?
- Which monitoring solutions will help us detect and stop attacks?
- What are the best investments to make with our limited budget?
- How can the facilities and IT teams collaborate on security policies?
- How can we improve security with a small IT staff?
- What testing do we need to confirm our data is safe?
I thought they were just going to give us test results. But Pratum included what we needed to do to resolve the problems. That helped tremendously. I didn’t have to go do all my own research.
