The time to protect your critical OT environments is NOW and RSM is uniquely positioned to assess, quantify and manage your OT Cyber risks
Why does Operational Technology (OT) environment need resilience?
OT underpins a lot of the critical infrastructure we see within Australia.
An attack on an OT environment by an adversary can impact our way of life and endanger human safety. Since OT devices control production systems, any outages can be devastating. OT devices have not always been designed with cyber security in mind or run by cybersecurity professionals, thus making them even more vulnerable.
Cyber-attacks today are increasingly traversing from Information Technology (IT) to OT environment creating real-world critical impact on operations, health and human safety.
A huge focus – rightly so – needs to be placed on ensuring the operational technology is resilient to today’s cyber threats,
The Security of Critical Infrastructure (SOCI) bill that was passed in its full form earlier this year reiterates the required focus in this space.
Who needs to comply with the Security of Critical Infrastructure Act 2018?
Organisations in the below sectors need to comply with the requirements of the SOCI Act:
- Communications sector
- Data storage or processing sector
- Financial services and markets sector
- Water and sewerage sector
- Energy sector
- Health care and medical sector
