CYBERSECURITY FOR CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE
Fractal EMS was designed for Critical Infrastructure Protection. Fractal EMS is built on the NIST 800-53 framework and applies best practices of policies, architecture, and operational processes to satisfy the requirements of our most security-sensitive customers. Fractal EMS utilizes a comprehensive, integrated approach to ZTA (Zero Trust Architecture) within our cybersecurity IT/OT networks. We adhere to proven methodologies and apply best practices. Our position is to provide a ``Zero Trust`` framework and architecture to meet or exceed Industrial Controls Systems cybersecurity requirements, including personnel, hardware, and software. Fractal EMS has an in-house team of cybersecurity and IT specialists to provide an architecture that meets project requirements.
