Demystifying OT and IoT Security and FPGAs
OT and IoT Security and FPGAs Connecting IT and OT networks delivers greater visibility and makes it possible to better utilize platforms, buildings, industrial PLCs, and more. But it also increases complexity and blurs network boundaries—resulting in vulnerabilities that provide hackers with ample opportunities to strike. In this podcast, we review how organizations deploy Field…
Read MoreMitigating Cyber Risks in Operational Technology, Buildings, and Critical Infrastructure
Mitigating Cyber Risks in Operational Technology, Buildings, and Critical Infrastructure Operational technology (OT), buildings, and critical infrastructure are becoming smarter and more efficient with connected systems, controls, sensors, and more. With connected OT and IT systems, cybersecurity risks increase as vulnerabilities become more widely exposed. Cyberattacks bring financial, operational, and intellectual property risks, and studies…
Read MoreWhy you need device-level endpoint protection for improving OT security
Challenges in transferring IT security methods to protect OT devices leave commercial and industrial facilities open to attacks. These attacks can disrupt building or process operations, create safety issues, and result in data theft or ransomware. OT devices in industry 4.0 applications in manufacturing facilities and chemical processing plants are vulnerable to attacks that break…

Read MoreCybersecurity to the Edge for Smart Building Infrastructure
This video is part of a webinar presented by KMC Controls, Veridify Security, and Arrow Intelligent Solutions regarding cybersecurity for smart buildings. A fundamental challenge to securing smart buildings, or any building large enough to have a building automation system, is how to protect devices so that they reject cyber attacks in real-time. Rejecting a…
Read MoreSeven Security Considerations for Smart Building Devices
A smart building or factory can contain thousands of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. The problem is not all of them are secure. So, does that matter? At Veridify, we believe it does. A flaw in a single product can expose an organization, its people and customers to enormous personal, financial, and reputational risks. Smart…
