Cutting Through the Noise: Are We Overcomplicating OT Security?


Course

Anton Kouznetsov, Christer Swartz, Dr. Kayode Alawonde, Gustavo Arias and Ramzi Naouali explain why effective OT security starts with governance, visibility and resilient architecture - not additional complexity.

Effective operational technology security depends on mastering the fundamentals rather than adding unnecessary complexity. This session explores how organizations can build resilient OT environments by strengthening governance, improving visibility and adopting a risk-based approach to cybersecurity. It also examines how artificial intelligence, ransomware and nation-state threats are reshaping the threat landscape while reinforcing the need for secure architecture and operational resilience.

In this session, you will learn:

  • How to build a strong OT security foundation through governance, visibility, asset inventories and OT-specific incident response;
  • How to respond to AI, ransomware and nation-state threats with secure architecture, network segmentation and risk-based security;
  • How to unify IT and OT governance, engage executive leadership, and optimize existing security investments before adopting new technologies.
