For further analysis, use offline tools such as the NSA's GrassMarlin to better visualize the nodes that make up the active devices on the network, scrutinizing industrial control systems protocol traffic for any anomalies. 4.6 SCADA System Cybersecurity Report 4.6.1 Prepare a draft stand-alone report that will serve as a comprehensive document and guide for City stakeholders to improve their cybersecurity maturity that will include the following items: Risk Score, Threat Environment, and Maturity Model: All of the data collected through the audit and interview process will be analyzed and scored using industry standard methods. The threat environment will be quantified based on active intelligence gathering and compared to the cyber risk. The maturity model will be designed to provide a holistic view of the City's security posture compared to the industry in general using the Cybersecurity Capability Maturity Model (C2M2). Recommendations: Prepare and propose immediate and Tong -term recommendations to improve the risk posture and reduce vulnerabilities resulting in an improvement of the risk score and maturity status over time. 4.6.2 Modify the draft report per agreed upon comments and distribute a final report to the City.
