Chanez Zahzah explores disaster recovery planning that bridges IT and OT silos. She shares insights on unified governance approaches, early detection frameworks and coordinated response strategies that embed resilience into daily operations.
Cyber and physical threats can cascade quickly from IT into OT, disrupting critical services and manufacturing operations. Recovery time has become a governance requirement as OT environments connect to cloud and business operations carrying human, financial and reputational risks. Resilience is now compliance.
Effective disaster recovery requires bridging IT and OT silos. IT focuses on cloud and innovation while OT manages legacy systems ensuring operations. Building resilience means mapping teams, controls and processes into unified governance with clear roles. Beyond technical fixes, embedding governance into daily operations transforms frameworks into culture.
The session will cover:
- The most significant cyber and operational threats facing Canadian critical infrastructure and manufacturers;
- How to adapt strategies, governance and IT/OT collaboration to strengthen cyber resilience;
- A practical framework for early detection, coordinated response and disaster recovery planning that preserves trust and continuity.
