Keep Your OT Systems in Perfect Sync – Prevent Errors, Downtime, and Cyber Threats

In operational technology (OT), every second counts. When your OT systems are out of sync, it can lead to errors, system failures, data loss — and worst of all, invisible cyber threats exploiting these gaps.

Time synchronization isn’t just a technical detail — it’s a security necessity.

This practical guide gives you everything you need to implement secure and consistent time synchronization across your OT and ICS environments. Inside, you’ll find:

  • A clear time management policy

  • A standard for consistent implementation

  • A step-by-step procedure you can apply immediately

With synchronized systems, you build a resilient OT infrastructure — and reduce the risk of costly downtime, operational mistakes, and cybersecurity vulnerabilities. Secure your OT network with precise time synchronization.

Don't Let Time Tick Away — Secure Your OT Systems Now!

Every second counts. Loss of time synchronization means loss of control

Why You Need This Document

  • Cybersecurity starts with accurate time
    Log accuracy, anomaly detection, and incident correlation depend on it.

  • Ensure operational reliability
    Avoid delays, data loss, or synchronization conflicts.

  • Regulatory compliance
    Auditors demand precise and consistent time records.

  • Minimize attack impact
    Time inconsistencies are a common entry point for attackers – close the gap before it’s exploited.
