In this episode of Industrial Cybersecurity Insider, host Dino Busalachi sits down with Debbie Lay from TXOne Networks and Patrick Gillespie from GuidePoint Security.
Together, they pull back the curtain on the messy, complex world of operational technology (OT) cybersecurity, where million-dollar cybersecurity losses happen regularly.
Get an unvarnished look at what really happens when industrial organizations try to secure their critical infrastructure. From the shocking reality of cyber insurance claims being denied over half-implemented multi-factor authentication to the all-too-common sight of HMI passwords scrawled in permanent marker on the plant floor. This conversation exposes the gap between cybersecurity best practices and industrial implementation and protection reality.
Whether you’re a CISO struggling to justify OT security budgets, an engineer trying to protect decades-old industrial systems, or a consultant navigating the minefield of industrial cybersecurity politics, this episode delivers the kind of street-smart insights you won’t find in vendor whitepapers.
