Manage risks across IT and OT security environments

In an interconnected world, businesses continuously seek ways to enhance operational efficiency and maximize profitability. Digital innovations in IoT-based asset management, analytics, supply chain optimization, demand-driven offerings, and intelligent forecasting drive this transformation in OT security. 

Relying on network isolation alone cannot guarantee secure operations.

Modern OT security threats can lead to costly production outages, catastrophic safety and environmental failures, and the theft of valuable corporate trade secrets. 

Organizations must adopt a unified and consistent approach to evaluating control maturity across IT and OT security environments to manage risk effectively.

Driving Operational Security in the Oil and Gas Industry | Experts

Digital transformation initiatives are making oil and gas organizations more intelligent and aware. But as oil and gas companies become more connected, it's also creating a threat landscape drastically different from what leaders in the space have become accustomed to. Join WWT's Alex Bond, an OT security technical solutions architect, as he talks about key tenants of OT security — visibility, segmentation and secure remote access — and how they should be approached from a broader OT security strategy. Alex also talks about how CISOs and other security leaders can make the case for security as a business necessity and what to do to scale your strategy to locations around the globe.
