Episode 31: To Achieve ICS Security Today, Look to Yesterday
In episode 31 of Cybersecurity Where You Are, co-host Sean Atkinson is joined by Karen Sorady, VP for Multi-State Information Sharing and Analysis Center (MS-ISAC) Member Engagement at the Center for Internet Security (CIS). Their discussion focuses on industrial control system (ICS) security, some of the threats they're susceptible to, and what goes into making a good operational technology (OT) security program. Looking back over the past 20 years, the security community has learned some valuable lessons on the information technology (IT) side of things. But we won't be able to apply those lessons to OT and ICS without communication and collaboration. This isn't just about fostering conversations between OT and IT teams. It's also a call to action for organizations to work with public-private partnerships and communities like the MS-ISAC so that they don't have to go it alone.
