Operational Technology (OT) security

Operational Technology (OT) refers to all hardware and software that is being used for the management of operational processes in the physical world, such as monitoring and controlling machinery. OT, often embedded in Industrial Control Systems (ICS), is most prevalent in critical infrastructure and the industrial sector. Partly due to the fact that OT and IT networks are becoming increasingly interconnected, cybersecurity risks for OT-infrastructures continue to grow and evolve.

It is important to strengthening the cyber security of industrial automation and control systems to increase the security of our critical infrastructures. Therefore, sharing knowledge, exchanging experiences and collaborating is of great importance.

The Industrial Platform Cyber Security (IPCS), is a community of experts that collaborates on this ambition.
