Red Trident

Red Trident Inc. is a cybersecurity services firm that specializes in both IT and Industrial Control Systems (ICS)/Operational Technology (OT) security. The company provides services to mid-sized organizations operating converged IT and OT/ICS environments, with a particular focus on industries such as engineering, energy, oil and gas, chemical, and building automation. The company's service offerings include Security Operations Center (SOC) services, compromise assessments, and cyber threat intelligence analysis. Red Trident employs staff with backgrounds in military-grade intelligence analysis and hands-on industrial plant experience, positioning itself to address the specific challenges of securing OT and ICS environments alongside traditional IT networks. Red Trident's approach centers on threat-informed defense, emphasizing the identification and understanding of adversary Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) — including those associated with nation-state threat actors such as Iranian APT groups — as a foundation for building targeted security controls. The firm also advises on vulnerability management practices, including patching strategies tailored to ICS environments where updates are often operationally constrained. The company publishes threat advisories and guidance for its target audience, covering incidents such as the SolarWinds Orion supply chain compromise and nation-state cyber threats, and recommends compromise assessments for organizations running affected software in both IT and OT contexts.
