Gasflow Terminal: Industrial OT Simulation with 26 Services on One System

A compact industrial cybersecurity environment running full OT infrastructure in a single runtime.

Gasflow Terminal demonstrates how modern OT environments can be simulated at full industrial scale using a compact system architecture.

Instead of relying on large physical infrastructure or distributed industrial systems, Gasflow Terminal runs a complete OT environment on a single server.

The system includes 26 services:

  • 8 PLC systems (4 BPCS + 4 SIS)
  • 7 network switches
  • 4 local HMI interfaces
  • 1 central SCADA system
  • 1 intrusion detection system (IDS)
  • 2 data collectors
  • 1 SIEM system (Splunk)

Despite complexity

Despite the complexity of the environment, the system operates within a lightweight runtime footprint of under 3 GB RAM.

Core assumption challenged

This approach challenges a common assumption in industrial cybersecurity:

that realistic OT environments require physical infrastructure.

Gasflow Terminal demonstrates that:

  • industrial systems can be modeled as software
  • OT environments can be fully reproducible
  • cybersecurity testing can be performed in controlled simulation layers

Core problem in OT security

The primary problem in OT security is not lack of tools, but scale illusion.

Many organizations assume that realistic testing requires real industrial facilities.

Gasflow Terminal replaces this assumption

It enables:

  • repeatable OT simulations
  • controlled attack testing environments
  • infrastructure-level security validation

Alignment with Labshock vision

This approach aligns with the broader vision of Labshock:

transforming industrial cybersecurity into a testable, reproducible system rather than a static documentation model.
