Securing critical infrastructure networks

Protecting critical infrastructure networks from cybersecurity threats requires a comprehensive consideration of all connected assets. While the traditional focus has been on Information Technology (IT) networks—those networks prioritized secure data collection, storage, communication and use—more focus needs to be placed on non-IT critical infrastructure and services. This requires an understanding of the basic threats and principles related to Operational Technology (OT), Industrial Control System (ICS) and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) networks.
