Securing Critical Infrastructure: The OT Challenge in 2025

Securing Critical Infrastructure: The OT Challenge in 2025

Securing Critical Infrastructure: The OT Challenge in 2025 Operational Technology (OT) is the backbone of critical infrastructure, controlling essential processes across various sectors, from energy and manufacturing to transportation and water treatment. As we approach 2025, the challenge of securing OT environments is becoming increasingly complex and critical. This article explores the evolving landscape of OT security, the key challenges organizations face, and strategies for mitigating risks. The Expanding Threat Landscape The threat landscape for OT systems is rapidly expanding due to several factors: Increased Connectivity: The convergence of IT and OT environments, driven by the Industrial Internet of Things

Cyber-Physical System Attacks: Targeting Critical Infrastructure (2028)

Cyber-Physical System Attacks: Targeting Critical Infrastructure (2028)

Cyber-Physical System Attacks: Targeting Critical Infrastructure (2028) In 2028, the landscape of cyber warfare has evolved beyond traditional data breaches and espionage. Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), which integrate computing, networking, and physical processes, have become prime targets. These systems control critical infrastructure, including power grids, water treatment plants, transportation networks, and healthcare facilities. Attacks on CPS can have devastating real-world consequences, causing widespread disruption, economic damage, and even loss of life. Understanding Cyber-Physical Systems Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are engineered systems that integrate computation, communication, and control with physical processes. They are designed to monitor and control physical systems in real-time, using
