Cloud's Double-Edged Sword: Transforming OT Exposure Management

The NSA's Cybersecurity Technical Report on securing smart OT controllers champions secure-by-design and cyber-informed engineering, stating they prioritize “engineering controls to mitigate the worst consequences of cyberattacks”-like physical damage or loss of life. CIE moves cybersecurity from a design afterthought to a core engineering discipline. Traditional OT security often relied on air-gapping or retrofitting defenses, but CIE mandates designing systems that inherently resist attacks.

Reactive cybersecurity programs are destined for a fate similar to the story of the boiling frog, one that doesn’t know it’s in trouble until it’s too late. Proactive and predictive approaches to cybersecurity are a must because they act as early warning systems that alert organizations before disaster strikes.
