Secure Remote Access for Operational Technology

In developing a business continuity plan, an important consideration is that the organization may not be capable of sustaining normal operations on-site. The ability to securely support employees and contractors working remotely is essential to ensuring OT business continuity. OT organizations also need secure remote access because they may need to commission new equipment, apply critical patches, or deal with repairs and troubleshooting activities remotely. Additionally, OT organizations may perform remote monitoring and diagnostics or use remote operation centers to affordably take care of geographically distributed assets. Security is critical because a breach in an OT environment could lead to outages of services and the loss of human life or damage critical infrastructures.
