Increasingly the security of Operational Technology (OT) - Industrial Control Systems - is a major focus of concern. These systems are used in many environments across industries such as manufacturing, transportation, energy, critical infrastructure and more, and are a target for both sophisticated, nation-state attackers and cybercriminals .
In this episode of the Endace Packet Forensic files Michael Morris talks with Rick Peters, CISO Operational Technology at Fortinet. With a long career in engineering and almost four decades in the US Intelligence community before taking on his role at Fortinet, Rick knows intimately how attackers can target OT systems and has spent many years helping to defend OT systems from cyber attackers. He shares his advice on best practice in securing OT environments and where to start.
