OT & ICS in integrated operation
OT and ICS environments must remain stable, secure, and high-performing throughout their entire lifecycle.
In day-to-day operations, the challenges lie in
- the close interdependence of technical requirements, security specifications, compliance guidelines, and organizational decisions
- the integrated availability of OT and IT expertise
- limited resources
- the prevention of outages
This is where the true resilience and operational capability of the business are determined.
