How Ontario’s Startups Can Tackle OT Security

Ontario’s critical sectors depend on operational technology (OT) systems that were never designed to withstand today’s cyber threats. Unlike traditional IT systems, OT environments have unique vulnerabilities that can’t be solved with IT-based security approaches. This gap represents both a growing risk and a major opportunity for startups building the next generation of cybersecurity solutions.
In this webinar, industry experts will explore:

• Why OT requires a fundamentally different security approach than IT
• The risks and challenges critical sectors are facing today
• How startups can design solutions tailored to the realities of OT environments

If you’re a founder, innovator, or early-stage team building cybersecurity solutions, this webinar will show you why OT matters - and how you can seize this opportunity to make your technology industry-ready.
