Industry 4.0 designs and new smart Internet of Things (IoT) devices promise to seamlessly interconnect all the components and processes of industrial production to increase visibility, productivity and efficiency.

While integrating IT and OT environments offers substantial business benefits, it also inadvertently expands the attack surface of the highly-critical OT environment.

Read this CISO Guide to Operational Technology (OT) Security and learn how to protect interconnecting IT and OT environments to prevent adversaries from exploiting IT access points or cloud vulnerabilities to break into internet-facing OT/Industrial Control Systems (ICS).
