Four Key Challenges to Managing OT Cyber Risk

Summary: Dragos analyzed 465 advisories containing 2,170 CVEs in its 2022 ICS/OT Year in Review, an average of five CVEs per advisory, up from 703 CVEs investigated in 2020 - a 46 percent annual growth rate over four years. The post cites Ponemon Institute data that only 45 percent of organizations believe they are effective at discovering and maintaining an inventory of devices on their OT networks, and that 56 percent of companies now receive more than 1,000 security alerts each day.

What you should know: With more than half of companies fielding over 1,000 alerts a day and fewer than half confident they even know what is on their OT network, the alerts security teams cannot triage are the ones where subtle threat behavior goes unseen.
