There is the need for a fundamentally different approach
OT Cybersecurity is often handled in isolation or simply ignored. The primary reason – a misaligned understanding of the priorities and threats most critical to asset owners.
Energy
Energy
Priorities: Ensure grid stability, prevent backouts, and secure energy distribution.
Threats: Wide-spread power outages, critical equipment failure, cascading grid disruption, energy price manipulation.
Water
Water
Priorities: Prevent supply contamination & ensure safe waste management.
Threats: Chemical contamination, personal data theft, denial of payment systems, water scarcity, environmental spills, billing fraud.
Healthcare
Healthcare
Priorities: Maintain patient safety, secure medical devices, and ensure data privacy.
Threats: Treatment disruption, compromised patient care, identity fraud, loss of critical medical records.
Airports
Airports
Priorities: Secure passenger and cargo transport and ensure operational uptime.
Threats: Flight delays or cancellations, passenger data theft, unauthorised access to air traffic systems, smuggling facilitation.
Rail
Rail
Priorities: Maintain train safety, scheduling, and protect passenger data.
Threats: Train derailments, mass transit disruption, ticketing fraud, train signal manipulation leading to collision.
Maritime
