Continuous Operations vs Incident Response
Pre-define segmented isolation procedures in incident response plans so containment actions preserve safety-critical industrial functions.

Regulations
Business Context
Industrial facilities seek uninterrupted production while cybersecurity
teams must occasionally isolate systems, disconnect networks, or suspend
services to contain cyber incidents.
The Contradiction
Continuous operation maximizes production.
Rapid incident response limits cyber damage.
Why It Exists
Containing an attack may temporarily reduce operational capability, but
delaying containment can allow threats to spread across industrial
systems.
Direction
Prepare cyber incident response plans, segmented architectures, and
resilient recovery capabilities that isolate attacks while maintaining
critical industrial functions.
