From Findings to Fixes: Quantifying OT Cyber Risk Beyond the Perimeter


Course

Brian Deken of Rockwell Automation presents a practical OT remediation framework for turning vulnerability data into prioritized, board-level risk decisions at scale.

Getting visibility into OT assets is only the first step. The harder challenge is knowing what to do with that data - at scale, across thousands of assets, with limited resources and without disrupting operations. A structured remediation framework can transform endless vulnerability findings into defensible, board-ready decisions.

 

This session, led by Brian Deken of Rockwell Automation, will cover:

  • A four-decision remediation framework - harden, defend, defer or displace - for prioritizing action across complex OT asset inventories;
  • How decision trees incorporating CVSS scores, end-of-life status, VLAN connectivity and operational criticality drive contextual risk scoring;
  • Why formal risk acceptance must account for asset type, process criticality and site-level context, not just vulnerability severity.
