The increased risk of cyber-attacks targeting Operational Technology (OT) systems and third-party remote access has skyrocketed in our new hybrid world. Agencies working in converged IT/OT industrial environments must achieve complete visibility, security, and control of operations. They must understand what third-party vendors (suppliers/contractors) and internal privileged users (operators/admins/remote workers) are doing with their access.

BeyondTrust and Tenable partner to empower agencies to close their OT cybersecurity exposure gap and achieve Zero Trust security goals with continuous threat detection, vulnerability management, and highly secure remote access to maintain business continuity.

Join government cyber experts, BeyondTrust, and Tenable for an OT discussion. We’ll explore:
