Frequently Asked Questions

What is industrial cyber security?

Industrial cybersecurity (also called OT security) protects operational technology systems—including SCADA, PLCs, HMIs, and industrial networks—from cyber threats. Unlike traditional IT security, industrial cybersecurity must account for legacy equipment, real-time operational requirements, and the physical consequences of system compromise. It encompasses network segmentation, access controls, threat monitoring, vulnerability management, and incident response specifically designed for manufacturing environments.
