Security Intelligence Podcast

Conversations about operational technology (OT) security have been bubbling up more and more, and justifiably so. The term may not be as well known as it should be — or even entirely settled upon yet — but the consequences of risk in operational technology environments impact our daily lives. As Rob Dyson, OT Security Services Leader for IBM Security, explains, "These are environments that produce things that keep our economies going every day, whether it's our electricity, water or manufacturing of oil and gas or other devices." Dyson, along with Anshul Garg, Product Marketing Manager for IBM Security, join Pam to discuss how digital transformation in industrial environments has revealed the need for OT security, the environmental and safety risks inherent in these environments, and why industrial organizations need to develop OT-specific incident response plans.
