ICS/OT cybersecurity is the central topic of CISCO’s new eBook, “OT Cyber Security.”
Operational Technology (OT) is hardware and software that detects or produces changes by directly monitoring and controlling physical devices, processes, and events. It incorporates a comprehensive range of programmable systems or devices interacting with the physical environment.
Some bit of good news in the field of cybersecurity at last – compared to last year’s hectic activity in malware targeting large enterprises and critical infrastructure sites, Q2 of 2021 presented relative calm.
Redoubled efforts to protect industrial operation after the tumultuous 2020, with increases in industry-wide regulations, investigation efforts by law enforcement, and progresses made by cybersecurity solution experts have all delivered significant results.
IoT (INTERNET OF THINGS) devices were created in 1999. Since then, companies are continuously adding more and more IoT devices in their workspace as these devices make work a lot easier and faster. IoT devices are constantly upgrading with new features. The toaster is considered the first IoT device introduced in the market. And now there are thousands of IoT devices present in the market, for example, air quality sensors, Wi-fi typewriters, smart tennis rackets, etc.
As the newest Accenture Cyber Security report highlights, cyber attacks in 2021 continue to evolve – becoming more widespread, speeding up deployment, and getting creative in their choice of entry points and overall strategies.
Furthermore, the current trend of diversifying targets – ranging from smaller companies to huge industrial sites – means that no one is safe.
As Industrial Control Systems (ICS) continue to advance and integrate with IT, the risk of cyberattacks on OT environments grows.
While this technological development many industries are currently experiencing vastly improves their day-to-day operations, this shift has put ICS/OT infrastructures at significant risk.
Most companies have long been implementing thorough IT security measures to protect their data and digital assets, but it wasn’t always the case for OT environments.
2020 has proven to be a challenging year for cybersecurity.
While the world was in turmoil, cybercrime was on the rise – with hacker groups particularly targeting companies in insecure transitions to digital operations.
BlackFog’s recent investigation into the state of ransomware revealed shocking statistics – with the most-targeted industry being government sectors worldwide, closely followed by the education sector and the service industry.
As cyber threats to critical infrastructure sites around the world continue to dominate news cycles, the topic of industrial cyber security becomes an increasingly important point of discussion.
ATS Advanced Technical Solutions is therefore happy to announce the first upcoming webinar as a certified Cisco IoT Advantage Specialization Partner.
