About
As smart devices proliferate across industries—from sensors on factory lines and GPS trackers in logistics fleets to wearables in healthcare and connected systems in smart cities—the integration of Managed IoT (MiOT), OT and IT is accelerating. This growth, however, brings an escalating wave of cybersecurity risks.
MiOT devices, OT and IT systems must be managed and secured together. A single compromised device—whether it’s a connected sensor or an operational control system—can trigger severe physical, financial, and reputational consequences.
In this evolving landscape, regulatory frameworks like the EU Resilience Act are playing a key role in setting cybersecurity standards. They provide clear guidelines for securing critical infrastructure and interconnected systems, ensuring that both IoT devices and OT systems meet the required resilience and cybersecurity standards to prevent cascading failures and breaches.
This roundtable will examine how CIOs, CISOs, and digital leaders are addressing the cybersecurity challenges posed by MiOT and OT-IT convergence, including:
- The hidden risks of smart devices—ranging from outdated firmware and weak credentials to poor visibility and default configurations.
- Strategies to secure sprawling, hybrid environments without disrupting operations.
- Techniques to detect, segment, and respond to real-time threats across both IT and OT environments.
- Why MiOT security is now a board-level priority.
- What to expect from the Resilience Act
- How to reconcile different risk models and maturity levels between IT and OT infrastructure.
We’ll discuss real-world use cases and lessons from sectors like manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, and smart cities, where the security of connected devices is directly tied to public safety, uptime, and trust.
Join us as we explore how the convergence of IT and OT infrastructures demands converged security, and how MiOT is forcing us to rethink where risk begins and ends.
