Key Controls for Securing Cyber-Physical Systems

/ 1 min read

🔗 Securing Cyber-Physical Systems: A Critical Need for Operational Technology. As operational technology (OT) environments evolve, the integration of IT and IoT devices into industrial systems has increased efficiency but also introduced significant cybersecurity risks. Cyber-physical systems, which encompass a range of connected devices, are now vulnerable to attacks that can disrupt critical infrastructure. To mitigate these risks, organizations must adopt a comprehensive security approach that includes segmentation, access controls, enhanced visibility, and risk-based vulnerability management. Continuous monitoring and tailored incident response plans are essential for detecting and addressing threats effectively. The SANS Institute provides guidance on implementing key controls to ensure resilient and secure industrial operations amidst evolving cyber threats.
