OT security to protect your business

The importance of Operational Technology (OT) security in today's increasingly connected and automated world is critical. As industrial control systems (ICS) and other OT systems become more intertwined with corporate networks and the internet, their connectivity exposes vulnerabilities that can be exploited by cyber threats. The potential consequences of such cyber attacks are not just financial but can also disrupt critical infrastructure and even cause injury or death. 

In 2023, a staggering 70% of industrial organizations experienced a cyberattack, underscoring the need for robust cybersecurity solutions. With the average cost of a data breach for these organizations at USD 4.77 Million, it's clear that businesses must prioritize OT security to protect their operations and bottom line, mitigating security risks.
