Listen "Securing The Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT): Beyond the Firewall"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome to "The Connected Frontier," the podcast exploring the cutting edge of technology and its impact on our world. Today, we're continuing the conversation on a topic we started in our first episode: securing the Industrial Internet of Things, or IIoT. This is the second episode and we will be focusing on why we need to expand our security strategy beyond just using a firewall and thinking that we are safe.For years, the trusty firewall has been our digital guardian, standing at the perimeter, keeping threats out. But in the era of IIoT, where operational technology, or OT, is increasingly connected to IT networks, that traditional "castle-and-moat" defense simply isn't enough. The landscape has changed dramatically, and so must our strategies.Today, we're going to explore how organizations can move "beyond the firewall" with advanced, actionable mitigation strategies. We'll talk about robust network segmentation, the power of multi-factor authentication, the absolute necessity of end-to-end encryption, and the critical role of continuous monitoring and visibility. So, let's get started.#iiot #cybersecurity
