HCIS Class 1-4NCA OTCC-1:2022IEC 62443

Critical Infrastructure Security Solutions in Saudi Arabia

Tektronix Technology designs and integrates unified physical and cyber security architectures for HCIS Class 1-4 facilities across Saudi Arabia, converging perimeter detection, access control, video surveillance, and OT cybersecurity into one governed program.

Critical infrastructure security in Saudi Arabia combines HCIS-mandated physical protection (fencing, detection, access control, CCTV) with NCA OTCC-1:2022 operational technology cybersecurity controls, unified under a converged security operations model for Class 1-4 facilities nationwide.

The Convergence Model

One Program, Six Layers

A single governed architecture spanning perimeter to SOC.

Perimeter PIDS

Fiber optic, LiDAR, radar, and seismic detection at the facility boundary.

AI Thermal CCTV

Auto-tracking thermal and optical PTZ cameras for wide-area verification.

Access Control

HCIS SEC-06 compliant biometric turnstiles, speed gates, and crash-rated bollards.

Biometric IAM

Converged physical-cyber identity management synced to Active Directory.

PSIM Platform

Single-pane-of-glass command and control across every subsystem.

OT Cybersecurity

Passive OTCC-1:2022 aligned monitoring for Modbus, DNP3, and IEC-61850 networks.

Compliance Mapping

Built Around Saudi Regulatory Requirements

HCIS Class 1-4

Facility classification-driven design per SEC-01 through SEC-15 directives.

NCA ECC & OTCC

Essential Cybersecurity Controls and Operational Technology Cybersecurity Controls alignment.

RCJY Standards

Industrial security requirements for tenants of Jubail and Yanbu industrial cities.

IEC 62443 / NIST SP 800-82

International ICS/OT security frameworks layered on top of local mandates.

Delivery

How We Deliver

Site Risk Assessment

Facility classification review and threat/vulnerability baseline.

Converged Design

Physical and OT security architecture engineered together, not bolted on.

Integration & Commissioning

Multi-vendor subsystem integration, testing, and HCIS documentation.

24/7 SOC Support

Ongoing monitoring, incident response, and compliance reporting.

FAQ

Critical Infrastructure Security - FAQ

What determines whether a facility is HCIS Class 1, 2, 3, or 4?

HCIS SEC-01 classifies facilities based on criticality factors such as national economic impact, strategic importance, and consequence of loss, which in turn determines the mandatory security directive requirements for fencing, detection, lighting, and access control at that site.

Is NCA OTCC-1:2022 mandatory for all industrial facilities in Saudi Arabia?

OTCC-1:2022 applies to public and private sector entities that own, operate, or manage critical national infrastructure, covering OT/ICS environments in sectors such as energy, utilities, water, and manufacturing, as an extension of the NCA's Essential Cybersecurity Controls.

Can physical security and OT cybersecurity be managed as one program?

Yes. Converging physical security (perimeter, access control, CCTV) with OT cybersecurity monitoring under one PSIM and SOC gives a single, correlated view of both physical and cyber events at a facility, rather than two disconnected teams and toolsets.

Does Tektronix support facilities across the Eastern Province and NEOM?

Yes. Tektronix Technology delivers critical infrastructure security projects across Saudi Arabia, including Riyadh, the Eastern Province (Dammam, Dhahran, Al Khobar, Jubail, Ras Al Khair), the Western Region (Jeddah, Makkah, Madinah, Rabigh), Yanbu, Tabuk Province and NEOM, and Jazan.
