Water Operational Technology and Cyber Security
Cyber Security
Securing Water Operational Technology is a paramount concern in the modern era, as digitalisation and connectivity become integral to water infrastructure. The convergence of Water Operational Technology and Cyber Security aims to safeguard critical systems against potential threats and vulnerabilities.
With the implementation of robust cybersecurity measures, including firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and encryption protocols, the water industry can defend against unauthorised access, data breaches, and cyber-attacks. Regular audits, monitoring, and updates are essential to ensure the resilience of water systems. By prioritising cyber security, the water sector can maintain the reliability and integrity of operational technologies, preventing disruptions and safeguarding the essential resource of water.
