OT Cybersecurity vs IT Cybersecurity
OT and IT environments have different security priorities. IT security generally focuses on protecting information, users, applications and data, while OT security must also consider operational availability, safety and the continuity of physical processes.
| IT Security |
OT Security |
| Protects data, applications and users |
Protects industrial systems and physical processes |
| Regular updates may be possible |
Updates must often be carefully planned |
| Downtime may be manageable |
Downtime can affect production and operations |
| Focus on confidentiality, integrity and availability |
strong focus on safety, availability and operational continuity |
| Standard IT endpoints |
PLCS, SCADA, DCS, HMIs and industrial devices |
For this reason, OT cybersecurity requires a security approach that understands both cybersecurity and industrial operations.
