In this rewind episode, cybersecurity leaders revisit some of the hardest-hitting truths about protecting critical infrastructure in an increasingly converged IT/OT world.

This conversation explores the disconnect between IT theory and OT reality, from the real-world fallout of the CrowdStrike disruption to the challenges of virtual patching, insider threats, and the cloud’s role on the plant floor.

The discussion exposes how legacy systems, poor collaboration, alert fatigue, and vendor dependency continue to sabotage industrial cybersecurity.

They discuss tactical strategies for improving, from asset inventory and patching hygiene to choosing the right partners and walking the plant floor.
