What If Every Cybersecurity Analyst Had Ten Years of xOT Experience?

Summary: Dragos announced Dragos EmberAI, a new Dragos Platform module that applies the company's Dragos Intelligence Fabric - built from over a decade of OT threat and vulnerability research, incident response cases, customer threat-hunting telemetry, and over 5 petabytes of data a day from unique collection sources - to AI models for defenders. The company says the module lets IT analysts operate as if they have a decade of OT experience, and lets xOT analysts check whether a vulnerability affects critical assets, aligns with known adversary TTPs, and how it should be prioritized by operational impact.

Why it matters: Dragos frames the staffing problem as a talent chasm, not a shortage: demand for practitioners who understand industrial protocols and physical consequences is growing faster than the supply, and organizations cannot hire their way out of it. The bet is that embedded intelligence, not more headcount, closes the gap before adversaries using automation and AI do.
