Overview
As IT and OT networks converge to support interoperability and enable the Internet of Things, IT and OT network personnel will have to collaborate on network design, deployment and maintenance. With security top of mind for many industrial operators, this includes plant-wide deployment of industrial firewalls to help to harden the network infrastructure as part of a holistic, defense-in-depth approach. To support this convergence of IT and OT, modern industrial firewalls are deployed for a variety of reasons. In this webinar, you'll learn best practices on how to implement firewalls across a converged, IoT-ready network to help enable secure access and continued up-time.
Key Takeaways
- Discover how to work with colleagues to help ensure network security
- Learn about industrial network design training that can help streamline OT and IT operations using standard, unmodified Internet Protocol (IP)
- Understand how to address network security for both IT and OT
