IoT devices have brought about tremendous opportunity and efficiencies both in the workplace and home. Growth is projected to continue at a staggering rate, with 1 trillion IoT devices expected by 2025.
With the rise of edge computing, smart sensors, and controllers now bypassing firewalls and communicating directly with the cloud, this creates new risks for system exposure. In today’s complex security environment, getting better control and visibility of IoT and OT components is an imperative.
“Cyber-physical systems (CPS) incidents will rapidly increase in the coming years due to a lack of security focus and spending currently aligning to these assets.”
Key principles of securing IoT/OT
Because IoT and OT deal with a different type of Information Technology landscape, cybersecurity should also adapt to these new super connected digital devices.
At Avanade we believe to following principles should be applied in all circumstances when embracing the IoT/OT journey:
- Ensuring physical devices and onboarded applications are secured by design
- Establishing data governance across the various layers of an IoT architecture: from devices to gateways, to cloud storage and end-user consumption
- Understanding behaviors of your IoT/OT estate with monitoring capabilities and advanced industry specific playbooks for investigation and remediation
