While critical infrastructure defense has always been a high-priority objective, there’s still some disconnect in the world of critical infrastructure security around preparedness. According to a report covered by PRNewswire, a majority (84%) of critical infrastructure organizations indicated they had suffered at least one security breach involving their Operational Technology (OT) between 2018 and 2021; yet, 56% of respondents to the same study said they were “highly confident” that they wouldn’t experience an OT breach in 2022.
