Abstract
This IDC Market Perspective examines the increasing integration of IT and OT environments, which is enhancing operational efficiency and enabling data-driven operations. However, this integration also exposes connected devices — whether old or new — to new cyberthreats. To address end-user concerns and help them establish an effective ICS/OT cybersecurity plan, technology vendors and service providers must take appropriate measures.
"IoT projects, cloud connectivity, and network industrial control systems will only continue to grow as more companies leverage data-driven operations," said Carlos M. González, research manager, IoT Ecosystems and Trends at IDC. "End users that operate OT-driven systems are starting to understand what OT security systems mean and how they connect to IT. Technology suppliers and service providers will be a primary source of information for end users as they develop their cybersecurity strategies."
