In industrial cyber security, one of the most pervasive and costly mistakes is the belief that buying a security tool equates to solving a problem. This mindset—referred to as the ‘technology-first approach’—is not merely misguided; it’s...

Industrial cyber security is complex. Organisations managing critical infrastructure and Operational Technology (OT) face constant pressure from evolving cyber threats. In response, many organisations adopt a one-size-fits-all, or “blanket,” approach—applying uniform security measures across all systems,...
