Webinar Description
Key Takeaways
- Focuses on cybersecurity risks associated with OT and IoT devices that operate outside traditional IT security programs
- Addresses visibility gaps across healthcare, aged care, retail, manufacturing and logistics sectors
- Covers devices that cannot accept endpoint agents, tolerate active scanning or be easily patched
- Hosted by IT Integrity and Asimily, featuring Mike McDermott, Vice President of Sales at Asimily
- Aimed at Australian organisations managing connected operational assets
About the Event
This webinar, hosted by IT Integrity and Asimily, examines the cybersecurity challenges posed by Operational Technology and Internet of Things devices within enterprise networks. These assets, ranging from digital signage and building management systems to medical imaging equipment, CCTV, access control, warehouse automation and manufacturing plant equipment, often operate on corporate networks without the same security controls applied to traditional IT infrastructure.
Mike McDermott, Vice President of Sales at Asimily, will present global perspectives on how organisations are addressing OT and IoT visibility and risk reduction.
The OT and IoT Security Challenge
Connected operational assets present distinct security challenges compared to laptops, servers and cloud environments. Many OT and IoT devices cannot support endpoint agents, may be disrupted by active scanning, and cannot be patched or taken offline without affecting operations. Ownership of these devices is frequently distributed across multiple teams, complicating inventory and governance efforts.
The webinar will address how organisations can build an accurate picture of their connected environments without disrupting critical operations, identify which assets are exposed, understand existing controls and determine where blind spots remain.
Topics Covered
- Visibility challenges for OT and IoT assets
- Complexity of securing connected environments
- Identifying hidden cyber risks
- Prioritising remediation efforts
Who Should Attend
This session is relevant for professionals responsible for cybersecurity, infrastructure, operations or technology strategy who need to identify and manage OT, IoT and connected operational assets within their organisations.
