• Conduct OT/ICS security assessments against frameworks including NERC CIP, IEC
62443/ISA-99, NIST CSF, DOE C2M2, and client-specific requirements
• Evaluate client security posture across the Purdue Model layers—identifying gaps in
network segmentation, remote access, asset inventory, and detection coverage
• Deploy and configure OT-native security tooling including network security
monitoring platforms (e.g., Dragos, Claroty, Nozomi) and asset discovery tools (e.g.,
Dragos, RunZero, NetRise)
• Perform OT-specific threat hunting, indicator of compromise analysis, and incident
response support in ICS/SCADA environments
• Develop detailed security assessment reports, risk registers, and remediation
roadmaps tailored to operational and business context
• Support OT security program development including governance frameworks,
policies, and procedures aligned to client maturity goals
• Collaborate with client IT/OT teams, system integrators, and OEM vendors to drive
practical security outcomes
• Serve as a subject matter expert (SME) on active OT security pursuits—contributing
to RFP responses, solution reviews, and proposal content while balancing client
delivery commitments
• Contribute to Accenture's OT Security practice through reusable assets, methods,
and delivery excellence across engagements
• Travel as required to client sites (0–100% depending on engagement)
