Abstract:
Newly discovered vulnerabilities in industrial control systems (ICS) are targeted more than ever. In fact, the number of ICS-CERT advisories increased by 56.2% from 2020 to 2021 according to the TXOne Networks 2021 Cybersecurity Report. Many of these systems include legacy devices that were designed before cybersecurity became a serious concern, leaving them highly susceptible to emerging threats.
While installing patches and updates may work for IT, it’s a significant expense and disruptive approach for operational technologies (OT) that require in-depth defenses to keep operations up and running.
You’re invited to join TXOne Networks, a global leader in ICS and industrial IoT (IIoT) security, to uncover the ugly truth of OT digital safety and how to avert operational and revenue disruptions.
- Understand how industrial breaches occur and the long-term financial impact
- Identify the differences in protection strategies for OT devices
- Learn how to implement an OT-focused approach to cybersecurity with the right tools from TXOne Networks
