Applying the New NCSC / CISA Guidance
8 principles for secure OT connectivity
New guidance from the UK NCSC, co-signed by CISA, BSI, Australia’s ACSC and others, introduces significant updates for securing critical infrastructure.
In this webinar we will review the 8 principles and dozens of sub-principles, while introducing a simple grid for visualizing coverage. We apply the grid to network architectures typically seen in power generation, pipelines and passenger metros, evaluating the residual risk for each architecture in light of this guidance.
