Successful breaches that have physical consequences have increased 140% year on year for OT environments. Hackers are aiming more for disruption than monetary gain. Therefore, enterprises and municipalities must quickly accelerate their efforts to secure their operations.

Often, however, OT security requires debilitating downtime (let alone the costs), making the fear of a hack less acute than taking the operations offline to mitigate the risk.

During this presentation, Dr. Gerard Vidal and Brian Brammeier will use two real-life case examples (one commercial and one municipality) to review a minimal-downtime model to gaining visibility in your most opaque OT environments, providing:
• an implementation process for gaining visibility with near-zero downtime
• two real-life case studies
• a comparison of the “standard” IT process vs. a far “lighter” OT-focused process
• new mechanisms to achieve segmentation in minutes without VLANs, re-iping, or config changes

Attendees will leave with:
• a process plan to gain visibility for stubborn OT environments
• a downtime and cost comparison calculator to help make the business case for securing operational assets
• an assessment tool to determine precisely where your customers’ OT security efforts have stalled and to get them back on track
