Protecting legacy OT systems against modern cyberthreats

Manufacturing plants often maintain operational technology (OT) systems in service for extended periods, which can conceal substantial cybersecurity vulnerabilities. Legacy OT deployments face growing exposure to modern threats despite their long operational lifespans.

Why it matters: Manufacturing and industrial operators need to assess and secure aging OT systems that may lack modern security controls, patching, and visibility into current threat landscapes.
