Talking to OT: A Security Leader's Question Guide

Building the bridge to your Controls Engineers and Facilities/Plant staff, phase by phase.
In most organizations, security chooses and funds OT monitoring, but the people who run the plant or facility own the environment where it is deployed. Those are two different worlds with two different definitions of risk.
This guide gives you 34 questions to ask your OT counterparts across three phases of a monitoring project, and explains why each answer matters. The conversation builds a working relationship instead of friction.
- Phase 1: Starting the Journey
- Phase 2: Pre-Deployment
- Phase 3: Post-Deployment and Operationalization
