OT examples.

Original worked examples and interactive simulations exploring operational technology, cybersecurity, and operational consequences. Start with a question, change an assumption, and see what the result does—and does not—tell you.

Fictional scenarios, not live equipment.

The simulations run in your browser with generated values. They do not connect to the private lab, collect an asset inventory, or provide operating or safety instructions for a real facility.

Interactive simulations

Explore process behavior, physical dependencies, and the decisions needed to recover.

Browser simulation

Inside a simulated batch

Run a fictional mixing sequence, freeze the HMI feed, and investigate a latched stop.

Question to carry forward: A running process and a trustworthy display are different things.

Decision exercise

The server is back. Is the service?

Compare update, power, and cyber incidents. Restore dependencies and decide what evidence permits a return to service.

Question to carry forward: Restoring a component is not the same as accepting an operational service.

Browser simulation

Compute has power. Cooling does not.

Explore heat load, IT-only UPS coverage, shared water flow, and deliberate recovery in a fictional data-center room.

Question to carry forward: Duplicated equipment can still share the dependency that defeats it.

Worked example

Follow a decision from the scenario and assumptions to a bounded conclusion.

Worked example

Make the OT security investment case

Follow a fictional production-interruption scenario, then change the assumptions in an offline-capable worksheet.

Question to carry forward: Expected financial value supports a decision; it does not replace safety duties or evidence.
