OT Cybersecurity Best Practices for SMBs: Value of Change Management to Securing OT
Summary: Dragos OT-CERT's monthly best-practices blog for under-resourced organizations recommends that small and medium businesses implement a change management process for their ICS/OT environments, covering asset inventory, configuration security, cyber risk management, and incident response categories from its OT Cybersecurity Fundamentals Self-Assessment Survey. The post argues that a change record preserves communication across siloed IT and OT teams, aids troubleshooting and disaster recovery, and can surface potential security risks before they become incidents.
Key Takeaway: The post asks whether your risk assessment accounts for a cyber attack on a critical supplier and whether you could still produce your product or serve customers - a question that lands hardest on SMBs whose OT environments lack in-house security expertise.
