Protecting OT from Rising Cyber Threats: How to Stay Out of the Headlines

Summary

Nobody wants to be the next headline. But in modern manufacturing environments, cyber risk is often driven less by external threats and more by internal inconsistencies across OT systems. 

Many organizations assume they are secure because individual sites pass audits or maintain asset inventories. In reality, gaps such as configuration drift, firmware divergence, informal change processes, and inconsistent backup practices create systemic risk across the enterprise. 

In this session, we’ll explore why traditional cybersecurity approaches often fall short in OT and how a lack of standardization and visibility impacts resilience, recovery time, and operational continuity. Attendees will learn how these hidden challenges scale across sites, why recovery is often slower and less predictable than expected, and what steps can be taken to reduce variability and improve response. 

As cyberattacks evolve into cyber-physical threats with real operational consequence, manufacturing must shift from isolated protections to a more unified, resilient approach. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of how to reduce risks across OT environments, improve recovery outcomes, and maintain production continuity at scale.
