OT systems used to stand alone, and their arcane proprietary protocols made it difficult to access or control them from the outside world. However, over the past two decades, the growing demand for data generated by OT systems to provide planning, forecasting, billing, customer service, and other critical information to different parts of the business and customers has necessitated greater connectivity between OT and IT systems. 

Cybercriminals are now targeting operational technology (OT). This is a target where a successful breach could be more financially damaging to your business than a breach of your IT security. It is surprisingly difficult to defend against such attacks. It requires up-to-date cyber know-how and deep technical expertise. These skills are increasingly rare. And that’s why you need an IoT security service.

Understanding the problem of cybersecurity of operational technologies

As we move toward digital transformation, operational technology and information technology are increasingly interconnected. Even a small-to-medium sized plant can have thousands of connections, each representing a potential weakness and an open invitation to cybercriminals.

The problem is this. Most of your operating technologies are much older than your computer systems. The fact is that the most serious cyber risks come not from information technology (IT), but from vulnerabilities in your operational technologies (OT). Systems can be compromised; production lines can be shut down.
