Control AI Access in the OT Environment

AI is transforming OT environments, but are your controls keeping up?

A new Food Engineering article highlights a sobering stat: of organizations that suffered AI-related breaches, 97% lacked proper access controls. And it's not just external attackers. "Shadow AI" (employees using unauthorized tools like ChatGPT with plant data) is a growing threat that 63% of companies have no governance policy to address.

Key takeaways for food manufacturers:
- Isolate AI from core control networks
- Follow ISA/IEC 62443 zone and conduit standards
- Establish clear AI governance policies before a breach forces your hand

Worth a read if you work at the intersection of AI and OT security.
