Cybersecurity Blog By Cyble

This article provides an overview of operational technology (OT) and industrial control systems (ICS), highlights design differences between IT and OT, enumerates common threats and vulnerabilities (lack of segmentation, missing patches, poor password practices, insecure wireless, limited monitoring, and remote access risks), lists notable threat actors targeting energy/utilities/mining, and recommends security best practices including secure-by-design principles, OT-specific patching, monitoring/logging, training, incident response, backups, threat intelligence, and governance aligned with standards such as NIST and ISA/IEC.
