In this episode of InfoSec to Insanity, we dive deep into one of cybersecurity's most critical and complex frontiers: the convergence of IT and OT (Operational Technology). Our guest, the brilliant and experienced Paul Veeneman, joins us to unpack the unique challenges of securing critical infrastructure—where downtime isn't just a cost; it’s a potential disaster. Paul brings his decades of expertise to the mic, sharing candid insights about:
- The messy marriage of IT and OT systems and why they often clash.
- Real-world stories of attacks on critical infrastructure and the lessons learned.
- How to approach risk management and incident response in environments that can't afford failure.
- The cultural and technical divide between IT and OT teams—and how to build bridges that actually work.
With Paul's down-to-earth style and your no-BS approach, this episode is a must-listen for anyone tackling cybersecurity in high-stakes environments—or just curious about the chaos behind keeping the lights on and the pipelines flowing.
