1. Achieve end-to-end visibility of all the assets in the IT and OT networks<br />
2. Takes control of all assets to provide right access to the right resources at the right time<br />
3. Continuously monitor assets <strong>for</strong> anomalous behavior<br />
To that end, organizations must treat identity as the new perimeter and rein<strong>for</strong>ce identity and access<br />
management, an effective OT security solution.<br />
It is essential to understand that it is not enough to only verify user identities; machines, too, must be<br />
verified be<strong>for</strong>e allowing network access. Every OT system connected to the internet, such as the PLC<br />
must be secured with digital certificates and keys. It must be authenticated be<strong>for</strong>e every communication<br />
and be constantly monitored. This includes implementing strong encryption standards <strong>for</strong> all machine-tomachine<br />
communications. In addition, machine identities should be managed efficiently, so they do not<br />
serve as weak links in the system.<br />
Leaders should also plan to upgrade outdated software and hardware systems that no longer support<br />
modern security controls. Without adequate security, they would be highly vulnerable to cyberattacks.<br />
Strong security policies must be en<strong>for</strong>ced across the organization to prevent security gaps and improve<br />
OT compliance.<br />
It’s not an exaggeration to say that cyberattacks may affect the functioning of life as we know it. These<br />
threats are a big deal and cyber postures across all operations can no longer be an afterthought. The<br />
best way <strong>for</strong>ward is to shield up, follow cyber-hygiene, and always stay vigilant.<br />
