Understand and assess the cyber security maturity of your operational technology (OT) and IoT environments, get detailed tactical recommendations and develop a prioritized improvement plan.
Innovative operational technology (OT) is leveraging internet of things-based (IoT) asset management, robotics, supply chain management, demand-driven offerings and intelligent forecasting. But as OT and IT environments become more interconnected, they can open new cyber security risks for operations, assets and even public safety.
Managing risks requires a clear understanding of your control maturity using a consistent approach and framework across both OT and IT systems.
Hackers and cyber criminals can now reach your OT networks. Outdated approaches such as air-gapping and “security by obscurity” can no longer protect systems from today’s highly sophisticated and targeted attacks, ranging from malware to insider threats. Isolating networks is no longer feasible. Breaches can result in costly production outages, potentially catastrophic safety and environmental failures, and theft of corporate trade secrets.
The challenge facing operations managers is that OT environments have not been exposed to the same threat level as enterprise IT systems. While your IT environment might be highly secure, your OT security is most likely at a low level of maturity.
Managing risks requires a clear understanding of your control maturity using a unified, consistent approach and framework across both OT and IT systems.
