#### Building an OT vulnerability management programme is hard.

- Why vulnerability management is different in IT vs OT.
- How vulnerability assessment is just the first step towards proper management.
- Trends Dragos is seeing across the industry.
- Practical recommendations to move you towards greater security in your OT environment.
