Prism: OT Flow Analysis and Visualization for Operator-Readable Context

Prism turns packet and flow behavior into inspection views engineering teams can actually use. It supports deep flow analysis, pipeline visualization, topology exploration, and communication-path review for troubleshooting, planning, and assessment workflows.

Where Prism Fits

Prism is a standalone analysis tool for cases where packet-level detail needs to become operator-usable network understanding. It is especially useful for visual communication during investigations, segmentation planning, and team briefings.

  • Flow pipeline visualization for control/data path interpretation
  • Topology views that help teams align on communications structure
  • Operator-friendly visuals for incident and assessment briefings
  • Supports analysis workflows around MarlinSpike outputs and packet captures
Prism is typically deployed as part of a broader River Risk workflow (software evaluation, consulting, assessment support, or training). Inquiry helps route you to the right fit.

Use Cases

When Prism is the right tool

Flow triage and communication-path review

Turn raw traffic relationships into readable views for analysts, engineers, and operators.

Segmentation planning support

Use visual flow paths to clarify what actually communicates before zone/conduit decisions.

Assessment and incident briefing visuals

Reduce translation loss when sharing findings with plant leadership and engineering stakeholders.

Training support

Useful in OT security classes and emulation scenarios where teams need to see behavior, not just logs.
