"ForeScout: Without Visibility and Control, OT Security Remains at Severe Risk"

Further attention is being brought to the cybersecurity of operational technology (OT). Physical infrastructure is a way in which cybercriminals can infiltrate an enterprise network. OT systems are now more connected to the internet and joined with IT networks, increasing their vulnerability to cyberattacks. OT assets are also highly vulnerable as the technology in OT systems such as programmable logic controllers (PLC) were not designed and developed with security in mind. Old OT lacks encryption and authentication. This article continues to discuss the vulnerability of OT to cyberattacks, what organizations should do to secure their physical infrastructure, and efforts made by ForeScout to improve OT security.
