About the Event
This free webinar, titled “NetRise and runZero Join the Mission: Team Dragos and What to Expect,” brings together the CEOs of Dragos, NetRise, and runZero following Dragos’s acquisition of both companies. The session provides an executive perspective on how these acquisitions reshape Dragos’s approach to protecting critical infrastructure and what the combined organization will offer to the OT security market.
The virtual format focuses on strategic and technical insights rather than product demonstrations, with the leadership team discussing the rationale behind the acquisitions and their implications for customers operating in industrial and federal environments.
OT and xOT Security Integration
A central theme of the webinar is the concept of extended Operational Technology (xOT), which encompasses the broader ecosystem connecting traditional OT environments with IT infrastructure. The discussion addresses how NetRise and runZero bring complementary capabilities to Dragos’s existing platform, particularly in closing gaps between threat detection and response across these interconnected environments.
The session examines how organizations can leverage integrated solutions to address the practical challenge of managing security across environments that were historically siloed. This includes expanding Dragos’s services to federal agencies and IT teams that intersect with operational technology.
Critical Infrastructure Threat Landscape
The webinar addresses evolving cyber threats targeting OT and xOT environments, with particular attention to the business realities driving organizations to reconsider their resilience strategies. Security teams in critical infrastructure sectors face increasing pressure to defend against sophisticated attacks while maintaining operational continuity.
Who Should Attend
The webinar targets CISOs, security leaders, IT and OT managers, and cybersecurity professionals responsible for protecting critical infrastructure. Federal agency representatives and decision-makers in utilities, manufacturing, energy, and government sectors will find the strategic discussion relevant to their operational security planning. Those evaluating how to unify detection and response capabilities across IT and OT boundaries are the primary audience for this session.
