Protect Your Critical Infrastructure: How You Can Align PLC Engineering With the NIST Cybersecurity Framework

Cyberattacks target manufacturers’ operational technology (OT) systems to cause process disruptions, equipment damage, unsafe conditions, and production impacts, and a compromised OT environment can also lead to breaches in connected IT networks.

As OT systems become more software-centric, enforcing secure software management practices can go a long way toward safeguarding programmable logic controllers (PLCs), robots, and drives. The NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) provides guidelines for organizations to better manage and reduce cybersecurity risk. When you pair the two, you can effectively address the unique challenges of securing converged OT/IT infrastructures.

Watch this on-demand webinar to learn how you can apply Industrial DevOps to implement NIST’s five key functions – Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover – and how that helps assure you of a strong security posture. You will learn how:

• Industrial DevOps augment OT security
• Industrial DevOps’ visibility, control, and automation capabilities support NIST CSF functions
• How to improve operational efficiency, increase reliability, and mitigate risk
