As the adoption of digital technologies and IoT tools has increased within the Energy and Renewables Sector, IT/OT convergence has accelerated dramatically. OT systems that would have once been “air-gapped” are now connected to IT networks and cloud platforms, including third-party integrations. These would typically be for monitoring, analytics, optimisation and remote support purposes.

While this connectivity delivers real business value it also dramatically increases the cyber attack surface, presenting a range of threats. Not only that, but it makes compliance with industry regulations all the more challenging by expanding assets and system scope. This places a strain on existing IT and OT resources to manage.

In this live webinar, the panel will share insights and best practice regarding the adoption of technologies designed to support IT/OT convergence.

Experts from Arcanum and Xona will share their knowledge on the current threat landscape within the Energy sector, how CNI and COMAH sites can achieve regulatory compliance and, through this, make a compelling case for cyber security investment.

Here’s what you’ll discover:

• How recent cyber breaches provide a clear warning that Energy and Renewables are a very real target for threat actors.
• How remote access can support organisations and cyber security initiatives.
• How and why regulatory frameworks such as the Cyber Assessment Framework (CAF) and the ISA/IEC 62443 standard should be utilised to improve risk posture and demonstrate best practice.
• How to make a compelling case for cyber security investment to meet evolving threats and increased regulation.
