When IT Security Meets OT Reality: Why One Size Doesn't Fit All
Manage episode 517861703 series 3519015
What happens when IT cybersecurity practices collide with OT operational realities? In this episode, Jim and Dino expose the costly mistakes organizations make when applying IT security playbooks to manufacturing environments.
Discover why zero trust architectures can halt production, how shadow IT thrives on every plant floor, and why remote access policies designed for corporate networks fail in industrial settings.
Learn the critical importance of OT-tailored asset inventories, the need for IT/OT collaboration, and why digital safety must be treated with the same urgency as physical safety.
If you're struggling to bridge the gap between IT security mandates and OT operational needs—or if you've ever watched a well-intentioned security policy bring production to a halt—this episode is your roadmap to getting it right.
