Operational technology is hardware or software that controls, monitors and manages manufacturing processes.
What’s the difference between IT and OT?
IT security primarily focuses on keeping data safe and confidential. It protects networks, endpoints and devices like laptops and servers. OT security aims to ensure the continuous availability of physical and electronic components of manufacturing machinery and other production equipment.
What’s an example of an OT device?
Programmable logic controllers (PLCs), remote terminal units (RTUs) and industrial control systems (ICSs) are all examples of OT devices. You could also include sensors, CCTV and smart robotics used in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) devices.
What’s the difference between IT security and OT security?
IT security primarily focuses on keeping data safe. It protects networks, endpoints and devices like laptops and servers. OT security aims to protect the physical and electronic components of manufacturing machinery and other production line equipment.
What is IT OT convergence?
IT OT convergence describes the process of integrating IT systems with OT systems. This aims to help businesses make better decisions, gain efficiencies in business processes, and reduce capital and operational expenditure.
