Four Challenges When Facing the Complexities of Digital Security
Reducing the complexity introduced by deploying point security solutions can improve compliance management, operational uptime, and access management issues—as well as visibility and protection.
Nearly three-quarters of OT organizations have experienced a malware intrusion in the past 12 months that caused damages to productivity, revenue, brand trust, intellectual property, and physical safety. Vulnerabilities in operational technology (OT) as a result of a growing number of connections on the IT network have become a major concern for OT organizations. To address these security challenges, many organizations have added a broad selection of point security products to cover each new risk exposure. But this increases OT infrastructure complexity and introduces additional problems in terms of manual workflows, compliance requirements, and access control that the network operations analyst is charged to resolve.
