Too Long; Didn't Read

Both IT and OT play critical roles in keeping an organization protected from external and internal threats, but the terms have distinct meanings and require different approaches to cybersecurity. IT is centered around front-end information activities, whereas OT is concerned with the back-end machines allowing companies to make use of that information. Companies are now rethinking their approaches to IT/OT, opting for a convergence of the two. While cybersecurity is commonly discussed in IT circles, it also needs to be a major part of operational technology management as well.
