Forced Digital Transformation and the Realities to ICS/OT Cybersecurity
summary
COVID forces rapid hyper-connectivity into ICS/OT environments, creating real risk evidenced by Georgia Power’s $8 million predictive‑maintenance savings and a petrochemical case with GE reporting $17 million and 36% less unplanned downtime; defenders face 12 state actors targeting remote access and tools like Trisis and Ekans. Practical plan: map stakeholders, rank physical critical sites, build scenario-driven kill‑chain defenses, pick the few controls that protect the top 10% of assets and iterate from A/B/C classes.
