OT Cyber Build-Operate-Transfer
The third path between the Big 4 deck and the five-year MSSP lock-in — Hillstrong builds the OT program, operates it while your team ramps, and transfers it fully to you.
Most OT cyber programs are built one of two ways, and both fail. The Big 4 builds a deck and walks out, leaving a team that cannot operate what was sold to the board. The MSSP signs a five-year contract and never lets go.
This service is the third path. Hillstrong builds the program, operates it while your team is hired and trained, and transfers it — fully — to your people. During the operate phase the program actually runs: monitoring is live, governance is enforced, and incidents are handled, while your team learns it by doing.
You end up owning a working program and the runbooks to keep it, on a planned transfer date — not a binder and a goodbye. The whole program lives in Resilion, so the handover is a change of owner, not a rebuild.
Frequently asked questions
- What is build-operate-transfer for OT cyber?
- Hillstrong builds your OT security program, operates it during the ramp period while you hire and train, then transfers full ownership to your team — a middle path between consultancies that build a deck and leave, and MSSPs that never let go.
- How long is the operate phase?
- It is scoped to your hiring and maturity timeline. The goal is a defined, planned transfer — your team owns a running program, not a pile of documentation.
