Critical infrastructure security

Secure.
Resilient.
Mission-ready.

FedShark helps federal agencies and public organizations protect the operational technology behind the services people depend on: water, power, transportation, and the defense mission. We harden the systems, plan for the worst day, and train the people who defend them.

Our mission: make the systems the public depends on more secure, more resilient, and defended by people who are ready.

The challenge

Critical systems were built to run, not to be attacked

The controllers that treat water, move power, and run public facilities were designed for reliability and long service lives. Today they are connected, targeted, and defended by teams that are stretched thin.

Aging, connected systems

Legacy controllers and protocols with no built-in security now sit on networks they were never designed for.

Rising threats

Nation-state actors and criminal groups increasingly target public utilities and government facilities.

Too few OT defenders

Public organizations struggle to hire and keep people who understand both cybersecurity and industrial operations.

Downtime is not an option

Security work cannot interrupt the services communities and missions rely on every day.

What we do

Protect the assets. Strengthen the mission.

One team for securing operational technology, building resilience into how you operate, and preparing the people who keep it running.

01 · SECURE

OT vulnerability assessments

Digital twin assessments, on premises or in the cloud, that find vulnerabilities and attack paths without touching production.

02 · PROTECT

Asset protection and remediation

Asset visibility, segmentation, and hardening that turn findings into fixes.

Learn more →
03 · RESILIENCE

Resilience and readiness

OT incident response, continuity planning, and security operations (SOC) built around how your facilities actually run.

Learn more →
04 · GOVERN

Governance, risk, and compliance

CISO-level advisory and practical GRC with evidence collection that does not bury your team.

05 · TRAIN

Workforce development

Hands-on training that builds OT defenders on real industrial protocols.

OT Range: physical OT cyber ranges

Train defenders on the real thing

You cannot learn to defend a water plant from slides. OT Range puts working industrial controllers, live protocols, and a physical plant model on the table, so teams can attack, detect, and recover without risk to live systems.

NIST CSF 2.0 and RMF deep dive

A three-day, hands-on workshop for the utility's cybersecurity team: CSF 2.0 profiles and tiers, mapping CSF outcomes to an 800-53 baseline, and RMF steps worked through with real templates, from system categorization and SSPs to security assessment plans and OT control overlays.

"We attended Kelli Tarala's GRC keynote at BSides San Diego and couldn't wait to have her deliver a workshop to our utility in Sacramento."
