What the OT security neglects to address is the number of challenges faced by OT security practitioners in achieving and, more importantly, maintaining a robust and sustainable security program. While technology plays a large role in the equation, the well-known IT approach of creating silos of deep topic knowledge does not translate well to adaptation in an OT environment. In fact, there is a large skills gap of OT security practitioners, and the only true way to determine success is by developing a single corporate view across all OT assets. This aggregated visibility drives significant gains in the management and evolution of security programs across multiple sub-disciplines.Join the panel discussion to hear from industry leaders as they share their insights and achievements on:The power of global visibility into OT assets for vulnerability and risk managementGreater collaboration between IT and OT through a global asset view"Think Global, Act Local" execution of tasks that leverages scarce OT security resourcesHow technology and organizational structure are shaping the future of OT security management
