What changes in the industry landscape are causing increased security threats for OT systems? Anand Oswal (SVP & GM at Palo Alto Networks) elaborates on these questions in this short clip. OT systems are deployed on factory floors, oil and gas, mining, etc. Traditionally, these environments were closed and not exposed to the outside world much. However, due to digitalization and its various benefits, these systems are often connected now to the outside world, making them more susceptible to cybersecurity risks. Another trend in the industry is that, in many cases, the same top entity manages both IT and OT systems, and as a result, these systems are getting closer to each other. That bears the need to adopt similar best practices in IT systems for OT systems to ensure zero-trust IT architecture. For OT environments, operational uptime is the most critical metric. Anand emphasized that organizations should consider security for such systems from the get-go and not as an afterthought.
