NTPC’s perimeter security appliances are near their end of life. Additionally, NTPC’s SOC Monitoring Platform is no longer mature enough to meet the sophistication required for a robust detect and respond infrastructure. NTPC is looking for network security appliances at its 43 physical locations, but also considering these as the foundational inspection tools to implement something similar to an IEC 62443 Conduit and Zones model that can address modern challenges to Information and Operation Technology stacks. As part of this project, NTPC also intends on maturing the capability of its SOC, where that be in-house, completely hosted, or a hybrid solution as proposed by the vendor.
NTPC has planned this project to span 2 years, where implementation would have to be staged with carefully planned downtime and integration/co-existence/migration from the legacy perimeter security appliances.
