The Responsibility of Building What’s Next in xOT Cybersecurity

Summary: Dragos was named a Leader in The Forrester Wave: Operational Technology Security Solutions, Q3 2026, receiving the highest possible score in eight criteria including Vision, Innovation, and OT-specific incident investigation and response. The post describes the market's shift toward an extended OT (xOT) environment, where more technologies, users, connections, and third parties can affect physical processes, and notes that the first phase of the Phosphorus acquisition has brought device intelligence into the Dragos Platform.

Bottom line: Forrester's point, quoted here, is that OT security is about protecting systems that simply cannot go offline, and the post calls risking operational resilience a redline no vendor can cross. As more technologies connect to physical processes, the stake is whether added visibility and integration with IT SOCs preserve the OT context that makes the information actionable.
