Industrial control system (ICS) environments face a growing volume of cyber threats, yet many organizations struggle to translate those risks into quantifiable business terms. In this guide, IIoT World breaks down the essential frameworks, metrics, and…
Industrial cybersecurity is a critical focus area for the manufacturing sector, where legacy systems and digital transformation collide. This session, featuring experts from Fortinet, Orange Business, Enfo CyberSec, and Honeywell, explores solutions to secure OT (Operational Technology) networks and…
In today's interconnected world, the cybersecurity of Operational Technology (OT) systems has emerged as a pivotal concern for industries spanning power generation to process manufacturing. The complexity and criticality of these systems demand a sophisticated, nuanced…
Jessica Wachtel of InfluxData explains how a unified namespace replaces the ISA-95 pyramidal hierarchy with a centralized single source of truth for IIoT data, combining the safety benefits of isolated device controls with modern cloud capabilities…
As the world moves towards greater digitalization and the convergence of IT (Information Technology) and OT (Operational Technology), the battery manufacturing industry is experiencing a significant shift towards smarter manufacturing processes. In a recent interview with…
The OT environment is different from the IT environment in many ways, with proprietary and multi-vendor systems that require a specialized approach. The existing managed security services are generally inadequate as they are focused on IT…
“Timely and secure information sharing can bridge the gap between vulnerability and security.” This was a key message from a webinar on ICS & OT Supply Chain Risk Management presented by Information Security Media Group. The webinar discussed…
A good portion of existing operational technology (OT) networks were originally built during the air gap days, where isolation from other enterprise systems made for sufficient security. As digital transformation initiatives drive IT and OT networks…
As recent cyberattacks have demonstrated increased risk to both IT and operational technology (OT) environments, resilience readiness today has evolved. It is more than a cybersecurity strategy and involves the enforcement of rules and policies that…
Earlier this year, a colleague of mine and I were on our way to the IoT Solutions World Congress in Barcelona. Although we made our connecting flights, a couple of minutes after deplaning, we received emails and…
A new report on Operational Technology (OT) equipment flaws from automated cybersecurity software company Forescout outlines the alarming state of OT security. The report titled OT:ICEFALL was crafted by researchers at the company’s Vedere lab. It…
A database on the edge can open doors to enhanced IT and OT operations. The Internet of Things (IoT) and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) are no longer vague concepts. They are part of a…
