Enhancing Asset Visibility for Operational Security

This chapter discusses the critical need for organizations to improve asset visibility amidst evolving regulatory frameworks like NIST. It explores the vulnerabilities of operational technology (OT) systems, particularly during cyberattacks, and emphasizes the integration of IT and OT for better monitoring and security. Real-world examples highlight the implications of attacks on systems such as payment devices, advocating for proactive measures to patch vulnerabilities in interconnected environments.
