Craig and Dino tackle one of industrial cybersecurity's most critical challenges in this Rewind episode: the massive gap between IT and OT patching strategies.
IT organizations patch constantly—think Patch Tuesday. OT environments rarely patch at all, creating dangerous vulnerability gaps across connected networks.
The hosts explore why this disconnect exists. Production floor downtime costs are astronomical, making patching a risky business decision.
OEM restrictions complicate matters further. Many vendors won't support systems or warranties after unauthorized updates.
Managing decades-old equipment alongside modern systems creates another layer of complexity. Legacy PLCs weren't designed with patching in mind.
The consequences of not patching are mounting. Insurance companies are tightening requirements and regulatory pressures are intensifying.
Craig and Dino offer practical solutions that don't require shutting down production lines. Virtual patching technologies can protect legacy control systems without traditional software updates.
The hosts emphasize the urgent need for IT-OT collaboration. All stakeholders—including OEMs and system integrators—must be part of strategic cybersecurity conversations.
This episode is essential listening for CISOs, plant managers, and anyone responsible for protecting industrial operations. The connected world isn't waiting for OT to catch up.

We are going through an advancing digital age, no one can deny that. Data is coming at workers from all directions. There is great knowledge in that data, but who has the time to sort through it, after all, we have to keep making product and keep the process moving safe and sound.
For safety and functional safety, manufacturers need to manage data and be able to identify trends to understand all levels of risk. That is where safety services can come into play

Klaus Kilvinger von Opexa Advisory zieht dem NIS2UmsuCG den Zahn und nimmt die Angst vor Überregulierung und Überforderung bei der Implementierung von NIS2. Er argumentiert, dass die Grundlagen in den meisten Unternehmen schon existieren und das Management des Cyberrisikos ein natürlicher Bestandteil des regulären Risikomanagements ist, für das die Geschäftsführung seit eh und je verantwortlich ist.
