L&T Technology Services Dons the Cybersecurity Advisory Cape to Secure the OT Bulwark
Background
Operational technology (OT) can be defined as the suite of hardware and software that monitors and controls the operation of equipment in a manufacturing environment. Decades-old OT systems, such as the industrial control systems for manufacturing, transportation and utilities, typically are not connected, making them obsolete in modern network infrastructure. The lack of automation leaves enterprises to carry out monitoring, log collection and equipment operation manually.
Smart, connected devices now offer much more power to control industrial equipment. The growth of machine-to-machine networks and machine learning has changed the dynamics of entire industries as enterprises build autonomy into new systems. A key benefit of this trend is the automation of preventive maintenance to improve machine longevity.
