This podcast expands on Brandon's interview with Food Engineering magazine, "Keeping machines and OT networks and IT safe from cyberattacks".
We take a deep dive into cybersecurity. Listen to the full episode to learn:

• Are cyberattacks evolving?
• Has automation technology opened the door to hackers?
• Is the Operational Technology (OT) side vulnerable to cyberattacks?
• What are some vectors that can infect systems?
• Does "unplugging" the control systems work?
• Is there a safe way for manufacturers to utilize remote monitoring?
• Is OT/IT convergence the only way for manufacturers to achieve digital transformation?
• Can manufacturers connect their OT and IT systems and still remain secure?
• What cyber security advice can manufacturers implement immediately?

Thank you to CSIA (Control System Integrators Association) and Food Engineering magazine for giving Brandon the opportunity to share his experiences and expertise!
