The Cisco Industrial Cybersecurity eBook shares a realistic and pragmatic vision of industrial security best practices to help you kick-start and protect your network projects.  Learn about the challenges of industrial cybersecurity and gain an understanding of IoT/OT cybersecurity threats and best practices.

The risk landscape

In the traditional IT world, the risk involves threats that would undermine the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data and systems. The impact is mainly financial, such as the cases of extortion, bank fraud or denial of service attacks distributed on web servers that are used by e-commerce sites.

Industrial control systems drive the physical world where operational technologies are used (called OT). The risk in ICS environments involves threats that would undermine the operational safety and the availability or even the physical integrity of the production tool.

Kickstart your industrial cybersecurity project
