Malicious actors are always looking for the "Easy Button" when it comes to breaching your system.
This week on Feds At the Edge, we are looking at
the protection of Operational Technology (OT), critical hardware on premises. Traditionally separated from IT systems by air gaps, OT is now increasingly managed by IT departments
due to the convergence of IT and OT.
Few realize that OT has federal compliance regulations, just like IT. The real issue, should an OT systems administrator have to do repetitive work to comply with IT mandates? Marty Edwards,
Deputy CTO, OT/IoT from Tenable, noted that he has seen up to 80% similarity between IT and OT compliance standards, prompting efforts to reduce redundancy.
Tune in on your favorite podcasting platform as we explore some of the challenges of protecting critical infrastructure.
