Cyber Senate Jamison Nesbitt speaks to Stefan Liversidge, OT SME of Fortinet UK about their recent presentation on the 10th annual Control Systems Cybersecurity UK EU conference in November 2023 in London UK.
OT trends typically follow IT and that’s a theme we have seen over the past couple of decades. As we look to improve Cyber Security maturity into OT then we see this trend continuing and so we start to see requirements building for Zero Trust in OT environments. To many the deployment of zero trust in OT sounds a daunting task and we start to see a fear of the unknown leading to resistance and a resulting fall back to classical approaches to securing OT environments.
In this presentation we will explore zero trust as a methodology and what a roadmap for zero trust adoption looks like.
