In this blog, Chris shares best practices to help mitigate the security threats to operational technology (OT) environments.

In this blog, Chris Sistrunk answers questions such as:

  • What tools do you use to monitor and govern your OT environment?
  • What are some best practices for securing remote access to the OT network?
  • What percentage of organizations are continuously monitoring their OT networks?
  • How can teams break down IT and OT silos?
  • What should roles and responsibilities look like?
  • Should companies unify IT and OT security in the security operations center (SOC)?
  • What would you say to a board of directors to get them to prioritize OT security?
