OT security strategies are an increasing concern according to a recent survey by OTORIO and ServiceNow. 200 C-level executives and directors in the U.S. and Canada were surveyed to identify key OT cybersecurity challenges and priorities. The research uncovered growing industry concern about cyber threats, with 58% of organizations identifying their OT cybersecurity risk level as high or critical.
However, 47% of companies surveyed have an OT cybersecurity solution in place, and 81% of respondents still manage OT risks manually in an age when risk management automation is increasingly crucial for efficiency and security. Furthermore, 49.7% of respondents have established a team to develop an OT security strategy, but have not yet created the strategy.
