OT Infrastructure owners are seldom able to oversee a converged ICS environment comprehensively, especially since securing OT systems requires a distinctive approach than the conventional strategies connected to IT systems.
OT frameworks are quickly morphing into cyber-physical systems that are associated with endless corporate and operational systems through the web, which has greatly increased the possibility of both cyber and operational threats.
The call for an Architectural Approach proactively identifying, distinguishing these OT Centric Cyber-threats along with in-depth Threat hunting & mitigation techniques is necessary and indispensable.
This approach not only helps the customer face the dangers you confront presently, but moreover decrease and possibly stop future risks.
The Operational Technology (OT) networks, (for example (ICS/SCADA) that run the modern society are a collection of systems intended to co-operate as a coordinated and homogenous framework.
In the event that one of these systems falls flat, it can start a disastrous domino impact and a chain-reaction. Cyber-incidents influencing these control systems can have serious impacts, not only on your daily operations, but moreover on a country’s economy and on people’s lives.
Cyber-intrusions can cause power blackouts, paralyze transport frameworks, and trigger environmental catastrophes. Hence these control frameworks & systems are crucial for several industrial processes and are profitable targets for intruders, criminal groups, phishers, spammers, hacktivists or even terrorists.
With the advent of Industrial revolution 4.0, IoT & IIoT, the increasing number of devices and systems that rely upon hyper connectivity, commercial & government entities must find ways to alleviate and prevent these system attacks, whether from an external or internal source.
Through this roundtable, we aim to reach out to our customers with an advanced, impenetrable, and scalable OT cyber security architectural solution focusing on industrial control systems, providing end-to-end protection for its cyber assets and communication protocols adhering to modern OT cyber security policies, standards & compliances.
Learn from the experts as they discuss the Importance of OT & IIoT cyber security and how OT/IT convergence offers protection with an architectural approach. Discussion topics revolve around:
