Cybersecurity in industry and KRITIS is a complex challenge. It requires a coordinated approach and investment to ensure the security and integrity of computer systems and the entire technical infrastructure.
Olaf Classen and Peter Lukesch, the two dialogue partners in our expert talk about OT security, are well aware of this.
Two exciting OT security talks will cover the following topics, for example:

Olaf Classen and Peter Lukesch discuss the growing importance of cyber security in industry and critical infrastructures in the face of increasing cyber security risks, influenced by criminal and political motives. Examples such as Stuxnet, Lockbit and other recent attacks illustrate these dangers.
They shed light on various challenges such as securing outdated systems, a shortage of skilled labour and collaboration between IT and OT. Solutions such as segmentation, patch management and clear responsibilities will be focussed on. Adherence to compliance requirements and manufacturer liability for products are particularly important.
Both agree that improved collaboration and clear cyber security guidelines are absolutely essential in the face of technologized and networked systems. This is because the lack of transparency and shadow IT are becoming increasingly problematic, especially in sensitive environments such as hospitals.
The right approach is important to adequately protect IT and OT systems. Involving specialists and service providers can help to be better prepared for potential attacks. Investing in cyber security helps to save costs in the long term and better protect companies from cyber attacks.
