What You'll Learn

Evolution of Security Teams

How CISOs are now taking responsibility for OT cybersecurity and the unique challenges this presents.

Tackle OT Security Challenges

Strategies to address personnel shortages, budget constraints, and the rising complexity of OT threats.

Reduce Vendor Sprawl

Why an OT security platform approach promotes vendor consolidation and simplifies management.

IT/OT Convergence

How merging IT and OT platforms optimizes resources, reduces costs, and improves security posture.

Report Highlights

  • Operational Technology (OT) risks are rising. Recent cyber events like the Clorox attack have caused production stoppages and operational losses.
  • Security personnel shortages persist. The specialization required for OT security exacerbates existing talent gaps, leaving small teams overwhelmed.
  • Platform approach is critical. An OT security platform extends IT solutions to OT networks, enabling centralized management and zero-trust security.
  • Vendor consolidation matters. CISOs should prioritize vendors offering comprehensive OT platforms rather than managing multiple point solutions.
  • IT/OT convergence is achievable. By selecting the right OT platform, organizations can merge IT and OT security operations, optimizing budget and personnel.
