Driving Operational Security in the Oil and Gas Industry | Experts

Event Overview

Digital transformation initiatives are making oil and gas organizations more intelligent and aware. But as oil and gas companies become more connected, it's also creating a threat landscape drastically different from what leaders in the space have become accustomed to. Join WWT's Alex Bond, an OT security technical solutions architect, as he talks about key tenants of OT security — visibility, segmentation and secure remote access — and how they should be approached from a broader OT security strategy. Alex also talks about how CISOs and other security leaders can make the case for security as a business necessity and what to do to scale your strategy to locations around the globe.
