Security Info watch: Experts share predictions and strategies for safeguarding the future from AI-driven attacks to post-quantum challenges:
For OT John Cusimano, VP, OT Security, Armexa:
“We will see more visibility and control over update deployment as a result of high-profile incidents like the CrowdStrike faulty update, which caused organizations to reevaluate their security update and patch management strategies. While this incident is unlikely to hinder cloud adoption, it has raised flags about cloud connectivity and dependence in OT and highlighted some of the vulnerabilities in many security update processes.
One of the most notable shifts in 2024 has been the centralization of OT cybersecurity as an organization’s core function. Defined ownership and IT-OT collaboration are critical. There will also be a shift to risk-based OT cybersecurity assessments, with consequence-based risk assessment methodologies such as CyberPHA and CyberHAZOP having gained traction. These methodologies enable organizations to model realistic risks that could have operational, environmental, or safety impacts.”
