In this episode, Mark Mattei, Global Director of Industrial Managed Security Services at 1898 & Company, unpacks the high-stakes challenges of protecting vital systems from sophisticated attacks. Host John Vecchi highlights the critical issues surrounding IoT and OT security within industrial critical infrastructure. From the importance of cybersecurity in industrial environments to the practical challenges of compliance and regulation and strategies for mitigating cybersecurity threats without compromising operational integrity, Mark shares key insights and actionable advice for operators in today’s volatile security landscape.
Listeners of this episode will hear about...
The Growing Complexity of OT and IT Security Needs: Mark discusses the increasing sophistication of threats targeting critical infrastructure, including state-sponsored attacks and ransomware, and the complexities operators face in balancing security needs with uninterrupted operations.
Challenges with Compliance and Budget Constraints: Critical infrastructure operators often face budgetary and regulatory challenges that limit their ability to invest in cybersecurity. Navigating mandates like NERC CIP and adapting to regulatory changes is essential but can detract from proactive security efforts.
Building a Supportive Community: Mark encourages operators to reach out within the OT security community for advice and support. With limited experts in this field, sharing knowledge and collaborating can make a significant difference for smaller utilities and organizations facing resource constraints.
