Meeting the challenge of OT security. Learn how Britvic eliminates blind spots in Operational Technology systems. Webinar Cyberattacks on industrial control systems are becoming more common, and there isn't likely to be a let up any time soon. The fallout from those attacks can be severe given the potential physical impact – outages and shutdowns in manufacturing that disrupt production and profits, for example. And increased systems connectivity inevitably brings its own risks, often including cyber security blind spots that expose sensitive data to unauthorised access and disruption. Staying secure and compliant demands detailed visibility of OT assets and the ability to protect them over an extended network. Constantly vigilant, automated threat detection can help too. UK soft drinks producer Britvic reckons it knows just how to do it. Find out more by listening into our latest webinar - Strengthening operational resilience - on 8 November 11am GMT/6am ET/3am PT. You'll hear the Register's Tim Phillips chat with David Cox of Britvic about how the company overcame the security challenges that threatened Britvic's systems. They'll go on to discuss evolving threats to OT security and offer advice on how to manage the risks from IoT connectivity and automation. Sign up to watch the webinar here and we'll send you a reminder when it's time to log in. Sponsored by Claroty.
