Yohei Ishihara, IoT Security Evangelist at Trend Micro, discussed the challenges facing CISOs in organizations pushing Industrial IoT.
As the cyber and physical worlds converge, the responsibilities of the CISO, an organization’s cybersecurity leader, are becoming broader and deeper. However, they are not necessarily supported by management and do not have enough resources.
CISOs themselves are concerned about an ever-expanding attack surface and already admit it’s out of control. From the CISO’s perspective, business leaders, such as C-suites, sometimes make decisions that prioritize business risks without fully understanding cyber risks. Additionally, SOC teams are overwhelmed with daily alerts and cannot afford to deal with new risks.
Modernization of OT, advances in industrial IoT with cloud and private 5G are improving the business advantage, but at the same time, it is expanding the cyber risks that need to be managed.
What can CISOs ensure their company in such a difficult situation?
As one solution, Trend Micro offers a unified platform that enables end-to-end risk visibility and efficient remediation across technology domains.
