Threat scenarios for industrial networks are constantly changing. New attack vectors and methods are emerging, while the operators of operational technology (OT) networks endeavor to maintain and enhance their security. Furthermore, new standards and regulations pose additional challenges for OT network operators. In particular, control over the devices in the network and their communication plays a central role. Modern approaches to network access control or NAC are therefore now a crucial component of every network and security concept.
This presentation addresses the 4 major challenges for cyber security in mission critical networks as well as best practices and counter measures.
