Securing OT with Network Microsegmentation
Traditionally, Operational Technology (OT) networks have used Local Area Network (LAN) solutions, such as Virtual LAN (VLAN) on network switches, to segment flat networks and protect against lateral movement of malware throughout the network. While VLAN solutions can provide segmentation with a greater degree of flexibility, this level of segmentation is insufficient to secure these networks from advanced threats and lack visibility into application-level communication.
