Manufacturing Penetration Testing Services
Nothing replaces skill on a plant floor. Our engineers trace the path from an inbox to a production controller without stopping the line.
IT/OT Convergence Testing
The boundary between corporate IT and industrial control systems, where a compromised workstation becomes a path to the production floor.
OT & ICS Security Assessment
Safe, non-disruptive assessment of PLCs, SCADA systems, HMIs, and ICS networks where downtime means lost revenue.
IP & Supply Chain Protection
ERP integrations, MES platforms, vendor connections, and remote access points that protect proprietary designs, trade secrets, and supply chain data.
IT-Only Testing
Vendors assess the corporate network and never touch the PLCs, SCADA systems, and HMIs that control production. That’s the gap ransomware operators target.
Segmentation Never Challenged
Flat network segments, misconfigured firewalls, and legacy devices with default credentials turn a phishing email into a path to a production controller. Raxis tests whether your IT/OT boundary holds under real lateral movement.
Untested Vendor Access
Remote vendor access, ERP-to-MES integrations, IIoT device connections, and third-party maintenance portals are entry points a perimeter-scoped pentest misses entirely.
The #1 Ransomware Target
Production downtime creates immediate pressure to pay. A generic pentest never simulates the phishing-to-lateral-movement-to-OT kill chain ransomware groups execute; Raxis does.
Why Raxis for Manufacturing Penetration Testing
IT and OT Together
OSCP-certified engineers work corporate IT networks, ICS/SCADA environments, and the convergence points between them by hand, from email inbox to production controller.
Without Stopping the Line
Non-disruptive techniques, careful scoping, and coordinated testing windows, managed with your operations team, for environments where unplanned downtime costs thousands per hour.
IP and Proprietary Data
ERP platforms, engineering file shares, MES integrations, and the access controls protecting proprietary designs and trade secrets from insider and external threats.
Compliance Across Frameworks
Testing and reporting aligned to NIST SP 800-82, IEC 62443, ISO 27001, and CMMC where applicable, built for the framework your stakeholders care about.
Continuous Coverage with PTaaS
New automation, vendor integrations, and IIoT devices change your attack surface constantly. Raxis Attack (PTaaS) delivers continuous, AI-augmented testing with real-time results and unlimited retesting through the secure Raxis One portal.
FAQ: Manufacturing Penetration Testing
What is manufacturing penetration testing?
A hands-on simulated attack against both IT and OT: corporate networks, industrial control systems, SCADA, PLCs, HMIs, MES platforms, and the connections between them, to find exploitable vulnerabilities before ransomware operators and other threat actors do.
Why is manufacturing the most targeted industry?
High-value intellectual property plus operations where a stoppage costs thousands per hour, so ransomware groups know manufacturers are likely to pay. Legacy OT systems with weak security, expanding IIoT deployments, and complex supply chain connections widen the target.
How do you avoid disrupting production during testing?
Careful scoping, non-disruptive techniques, and coordinated testing windows developed with your operations team. We prioritize passive reconnaissance and safe exploitation methods for OT systems and keep constant communication throughout the engagement.
What systems does Raxis test for manufacturing clients?
PLCs, SCADA systems, HMIs, ICS networks, MES and ERP integrations, corporate IT networks, wireless infrastructure, remote access and VPN connections, IIoT devices, vendor access points, and web applications, scoped to your environment. Manufacturers whose attack surface changes constantly use Raxis Attack for continuous coverage.
What compliance frameworks does Raxis testing support?
NIST SP 800-82 (Guide to ICS Security), IEC 62443 (Industrial Automation Security), ISO 27001, CMMC for defense manufacturers, and PCI DSS where payment processing is in scope. Findings map to the framework your stakeholders require.
What certifications do Raxis penetration testers hold?
OSCP, CEH, GPEN, GFACT, and more, listed on our certifications page.
