Legacy systems protection

Operational Technology (OT) networks, Industrial Control Systems (ICS), and SCADA networks are notoriously challenging to secure against cyber threats. This difficulty arises from outdated infrastructure, significant vulnerabilities, and the physical isolation of these systems, which can be located anywhere globally.

Given that these networks are often connected to critical infrastructure, they present enticing targets for cyber attackers. To effectively protect these legacy systems and safeguard vital operations and data, a different approach is essential.

legacy systems with CounterCraft’s latest technology

Threat intelligence powered by deception is ideal for protecting legacy systems as it gets to work without disrupting your live networks. 

By automatically creating a digital twin parallel environment, then luring attackers with breadcrumbs, CounterCraft enables attackers to reveal their identities and build a profile of  how they could compromise your legacy system.

The specific, actionable threat intelligence it delivers is unique to your organization’s attack surface, so your cybersecurity professionals know exactly what to do to neutralise the cyber attack before it impacts your operations.

How we do it

Specific. Actionable. Threat intelligence powered by deception.

CounterCraft delivers specific, actionable threat intelligence powered by deception, designed to protect organizations like yours from ransomware and other cyber attacks. 

First, we create a controlled deception environment that mimics your organization’s actual operational landscape. 

This digital twin attracts attackers, diverting them away from your real assets. While the attackers interact with the decoy, CounterCraft collects valuable intelligence about their tactics, techniques, and procedures.

By understanding the attacker’s methods, CounterCraft provides insights that help you strengthen your security posture, making it much harder for cyber attacks to penetrate your network.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)


Legacy systems protection refers to securing older technology platforms that remain critical to operations but are difficult to defend using modern security controls. These systems often run outdated software or protocols and cannot be easily replaced. Protecting them requires approaches that do not interfere with availability or stability.


Legacy systems often cannot be patched regularly and may not support modern security agents. Many operate in OT or ICS environments where downtime is unacceptable. As a result, traditional endpoint or signature-based tools provide limited coverage.


CounterCraft deploys realistic decoy environments that mirror legacy systems and services. When attackers perform reconnaissance or lateral movement targeting these older technologies, they encounter and interact with decoy assets instead of—or before reaching—real production systems. These interactions generate verified threat intelligence without putting actual legacy infrastructure at risk. Find out how AI-powered deception works with a demo.


Yes. CounterCraft can simulate legacy operating systems, services, and protocols in ways that attackers recognize as authentic. This allows detection of malicious activity aimed at older technologies. The real systems remain untouched.


No. CounterCraft operates alongside existing infrastructure and does not require agents or configuration changes on legacy systems. This avoids operational disruption. Protection is added without increasing risk.


Alerts are generated only when attackers interact with decoy assets. This confirms intent and removes ambiguity. Teams can focus on threats that are actively targeting legacy environments.


Organizations in manufacturing, utilities, energy, transportation, and critical infrastructure benefit most. These sectors often depend on long-lived systems that cannot be easily modernized. Early detection is essential to prevent operational impact.


CounterCraft can be deployed in hours, even on legacy systems. Once decoy assets are deployed to reflect the environment, protection begins immediately. Attacker activity is captured as soon as interaction occurs. Teams gain visibility without long deployment cycles.


Security teams can reduce risk by detecting attacker activity before systems are compromised. Monitoring behavior instead of relying on patches provides early warning. This approach limits exposure without requiring system changes.


Overlay-based security methods allow protection without modernization. Decoy-based detection provides visibility into attacks while leaving production systems unchanged. This preserves stability and uptime. Find out how deception powers preemptive cybersecurity with a demo.


Yes. Behavior-based detection is well suited to ICS environments where change is limited. It identifies attacker activity without interfering with operational processes. This makes it effective for OT and industrial networks.
