Zero trust is a response to enterprise network trends that include remote users, bring your own device(BYOD), IoT, and cloud-based assets that are not located within an enterprise-owned network boundary. Zero trust focuses on protecting resources (assets, services, workflows, network accounts, et...
However, connecting a previously air-gapped (not connected to the outside world) OT network to the internet via an IT network immediately exposes the OT network and all connected OT devices to the entire threat landscape. OT is generally not secure, since it was originally designed with the ...
In industrial organizations, there is usually an IT team responsible for the network and an operations technology (OT) team for the running of operations. These two teams must work closely together so that their skills and knowledge can help to ensure overall success of the operations and the ...
Ensuring the security of IoT gateways is paramount to protect sensitive data and maintain the integrity of the network. Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) security and robust IoT identity management play a crucial role in safeguarding these gateways. What is an IoT Gateway Device? The Importance of ...
IoT gateways segregate the network. For instance, they separate OT and IT domains in industrial environments or IoT networks and the public Internet while still providing communication. They handle outbound and inbound traffic. An IoT gateway handles outbound traffic for sending IoT data to the ...
