HiveEngage – Investing in OT Cyber security: from prevention to resilience

As manufacturers push further into digital and AI, operational technology security is shifting from a cost to be contained to an enabler of progress. The question is how to invest in it well.

In our next HiveEngage session, network member Laleh Bayat Sarmadi hosts a practical discussion on the future of OT cyber security investment, and on moving from prevention to resilience. 
 
Laleh will cover how to: 
  1. Reduce risk effectively 
  2. Manage the NIS2 Directive and wider regulatory compliance 
  3. Unlock existing IT BAU resources 
 
Laleh will draw on real-life industry examples, before opening up the conversation on how organisations can design their own risk-reduction and investment roadmap. 
 
It’s a focused 30 minutes, ideal if you work in or alongside manufacturing, operations, security or transformation.
