This guide reviews how elements of the Fortinet Security Fabric map to security controls in leading cybersecurity regulations, standards, and best practices. It outlines an architectural framework for securing OT—correlated to the Purdue Enterprise Reference Architecture (PERA)—and suggests actionable next steps in a journey to a desired state for cybersecurity. Finally, a helpful appendix maps
Analyst insights into OT cybersecurity trends and solutions To effectively stop attacks on OT environments, it’s important to have security designed specifically for OT networks. The newly released Westlands Advisory report offers insights into many aspects of securing OT including: The three OT-investment drivers OT’s layered security model Selecting an OT security vendor Fortinet’s profile

Industrial companies need strong OT cybersecurity programs to deal with today’s sophisticated threat environment. Facilities have become prime targets for ransomware and sophisticated nation-state attacks. Insecure IoT devices, cloud connections, and increased use of remote access have exploded the pathways for attacks on critical systems. This ARC report describes the major gaps in today’s OT
Operational technology (OT) networks, which control equipment in critical infrastructures such as utilities and manufacturing assembly lines, have traditionally been kept separate from information technology (IT) networks, which control data in organizations. This ebook identifies and discusses the drivers of IT and OT network convergence. It also highlights the technologies that asset owners should deploy
Why Security Must Cover the Entire Attack Surface Until recently, operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) had completely different purposes and were on separate, independent networks. But digital transformation (DX) is forcing the merger of the networks to reduce costs, increase productivity, and gain or maintain competitive advantage. A growing number of sectors are
The 2023 State of Operational Technology and Cybersecurity Report finds that organizations are making cybersecurity for OT environments a priority. This is an important and necessary trend because 75% of the surveyed organizations have had to deal with at least one cyberattack in the last 12 months. The survey data suggests that OT cybersecurity is
Did you know that today — in a time coined “The Digital Age” — most companies still have less than half of their back-office functions automated, with most of the rest having a quarter or less automated? Considering that accounts payable (AP) and accounts receivable (AR) workflows are among the most labour-intensive in a company’s
In this volatile global business environment, pivoting quickly has become a standard operating procedure, and the pressure for faster decision making is intense. Organizations are looking for ways to reduce costs, increase operational efficiencies, improve employee productivity, and promote customer satisfaction. As leaders look to their data to find answers, it’s become increasingly clear that
Ogni azienda oggi ha a che fare con i dati e questa evoluzione ha avuto significative conseguenze sui mezzi utilizzati per gestirli. I processi che un tempo consentivano l’acquisizione, l’archiviazione, l’elaborazione e la gestione dei dati sono ormai superati, a causa dell’aumento del volume e della varietà dei dati aziendali, facendo emergere delle vulnerabilità nelle
