Our recent study found that cybersecurity in operational technology (OT) ranks as a top-5 business risk. At least 61% of respondents reported incidences of data breaches in the last 12 months, 43% of which resulted in operational outages affecting productivity, as well as other business outcomes.

Evidence of blind spots to complex threats was born out in the high variability between companies in both tracking protocols and security capabilities. Two in five manufacturing leaders acknowledge that “undefined policies, procedures and best practices” still rank among the top barriers to effective response.

To help manufacturers truly understand the risks to their OT, this best practice guide offers recommendations and leading practices for OT prevention, detection, and response.

The study and this guide are produced by the Manufacturers Alliance in conjunction with Fortinet.
