Secure Your IT-OT Convergence
Operational Technology
Operational technology (OT) monitors and manages industrial process assets and equipment. Gartner describes OT as "hardware and software that detects or causes a change through the direct monitoring and/or control of physical devices, processes, and events in the enterprise”.
Similar to IT systems, these OT systems are continuously evolving, with industrial innovations leading to well-known IT threats emerging as new concerns for OT.
To manage the threat that is facing operational technologies today, proactive measures must be taken to secure your IT-OT convergence.
