Built On The Purdue Model, Not Around It
OT estates are layered, and compliance frameworks care about the boundaries between those layers. Modus models the estate the way engineers already draw it, so an asset knows its level, its zone, its target security level, and every conduit it depends on.
That structure is what makes the mapping work. When a control is claimed at the IT/OT boundary, Modus knows which conduits it applies to and which assets sit behind it. When it does not apply, the gap is explicit rather than assumed.
IEC 62443 is a standard, not a framework, and it is prescriptive about zones and conduits. NCSC CAF is outcome-based and asks whether you understand your estate at all. A platform that models the architecture can serve both. One that only stores answers to questions cannot.
