Starting Smart: The First 90 Days of an OT Cybersecurity Program
Cyber threats targeting manufacturing environments are becoming more sophisticated—and more relentless. But for many industrial organizations, the biggest challenge isn’t dealing with ransomware. It’s knowing where to start. In the session “From the Concrete to the Carpet: Assessing and Navigating OT
Why OT Cybersecurity Is Moving to the CISO’s Desk—and What That Means for Manufacturers
For decades, cybersecurity in manufacturing was someone else’s problem—usually the plant manager’s. That’s changing fast. As industrial organizations digitize more of their operations and face increasingly aggressive cyber threats, responsibility for securing operational technology (OT) is shifting up the chain
Cybersecurity in Manufacturing: Why Cultural Alignment Is Now a Critical Control
When it comes to cybersecurity, the manufacturing floor isn’t just another network—it’s a living system, deeply integrated with decades-old processes, lean teams, and mission-critical operations. That’s why, despite growing awareness, many manufacturers still find it difficult to implement robust OT

Beyond Secure by Design: Is Networkless Connectivity the Future of Industrial Cybersecurity?
As industrial organizations accelerate digital transformation, long-standing network assumptions are being challenged — and, in some cases, abandoned altogether. A growing number of experts are raising a provocative idea: that the traditional network model itself is the core cybersecurity risk in connected
