While 44% of companies have invested in AI, many employees still lack the skills to use these tools effectively. Reality is, we don’t have the luxury of waiting 10 years for students to enter the workforce. #CybersecuritySkills #Talent #CyberDefenses techradar.com/pro/why-britai…

A 56% surge in #OTRansomware incidents year-over-year is just the start. What we're seeing is the evolution of #CyberWarfare targeting the systems that power our most critical infrastructures—making them a primary focus of cyber adversaries. #OTCyber itpro.com/infrastructure…

Hype creates noise, fundamentals create resilience. The #AIMarket mirrors the dot-com era, with innovation hidden in overvalued bubbles. In #Cybersecurity, #AI is sold as the answer, but governance, asset visibility & segmentation are often overlooked. artificialintelligence-news.com/news/ais-dual-…

85% of security analysts spend most of their time just gathering evidence—not responding to threats. In OT, using #AgenticAI could mean real-time risk prioritisation & faster incident response without compromising safety. #CyberDefence #SecurityAnalysts digitalisationworld.com/blog/58489/tra…

Almost half of UK businesses lack basic cybersecurity skills. Some #RenewableEnergy assets are still operating on outdated, vulnerable systems. It’s the truth nobody likes to talk about - delaying this just pushes back the fallout... #OTCyber powerengineeringint.com/digitalization…

Machines attacking machines change everything. #AgenticAI isn’t hypothetical — it’s how defenders keep up: reduce toil, enrich context, and flag what matters. In #OT, constrain autonomy: no physical actions without explainability, validation & safety fallbacks. #OTCyber

Three key takeaways: - Visibility is key; you can't secure what you can't see. - Segmentation still works. Keep OT separate! - Culture counts. Train operators to handle new threats. #TechUpgrades #Cybersecurity #UKInfrastructure smart-energy.com/industry-secto…

#Cybersecurity talk too often stops at TAM and ARR. Real durability comes from scalable compliance, resilience under pressure, and ecosystems, not point tools. #SmartSecurity #CyberInvesting home.saxo/en-hk/content/…

In OT security, asset discovery, segmentation, monitoring, and governance are the difference between vulnerability management that reduces risk… and one that just generates noise. The lesson? Before chasing new tools, start with clarity. Read more: emberot.com/resources/blog…

These findings from BT highlight two truths: 1️⃣ Legacy systems drain billions in hidden costs. 2️⃣ They amplify fragility, as shown by the rise in resilience incidents across PSTN. #CriticalInfrastructure #Resilience #CyberStrategy techradar.com/pro/upgrading-…

There’s a dangerous assumption emerging in #GridSecurity circles: that #AI will magically harden infrastructure that's barely digitised, poorly segmented, and rarely assessed. This article is focused on the US but packed with lessons worth borrowing! frenos.io/blog/nerc-cip-…

The strongest manufacturers aren’t adopting OT managed service models because it’s cheaper. They’re adopting them because they’ve realised that resilience is now architectural. #OT #DigitalTransformation #OTTransformation automationworld.com/factory/plant-…
