The report highlights that Operational Technology (OT), once a secondary issue, is now a crucial focus for organizations globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The report offers a comprehensive view of the challenges and opportunities organizations face in building a secure and efficient industrial networking foundation. It also shows the dire need globally for robust security solutions tailored to the specific needs of industrial settings, as well as the potential benefits for those who can successfully address these challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOperational technology, specifically the network supporting industrial operations, has become a global key differentiator for organizations,\u201d said Vikas Butaney, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Cisco Networking &#8211; SD-WAN, Multicloud, and Industrial IoT. \u201cThis research spotlights how IT and OT leaders recognize that strengthening their OT security posture is critical to drive business resiliency, improve efficiencies, and prepare for the next wave of innovation with AI.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Key Trends and Solutions for a Resilient Industrial Network&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Industrial networks are becoming more interconnected, with OT systems converging with enterprise IT, creating a complex environment vulnerable to cyberattacks. Challenges such as outdated systems, a growing attack surface, and a strained workforce are making the situation worse. However, AI holds the potential to drive business growth for those who effectively leverage it to enhance industrial networks. Key highlights of the report include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Prioritize cybersecurity in OT plans:<\/strong>\u00a0With 89% of respondents citing cybersecurity compliance as very or extremely important, organizations that neglect these strategies will waste energy, time, and money on attack mitigation\u2014resources that could be better spent on innovation and growth in OT.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Encourage IT\/OT collaboration:<\/strong>\u00a0A significant 41% of firms report that OT and IT teams work independently, highlighting the need for improved collaboration. To optimize and protect data and assets, a combination of human and organizational factors and integrated tech solutions is essential.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Leverage AI for competitive advantage:<\/strong>\u00a048% of respondents view AI as the most significant technological advancement impacting industrial networking in the next five years, and forward-thinking OT leaders are using it to differentiate their companies and enhance product delivery. Organizations that fail to update their infrastructure to utilize AI for efficiency, data analysis, employee support, and cybersecurity will struggle to stay competitive as 49% expect AI to improve network management across IT and OT.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Cisco 2024 State of Industrial Networking Report draws on data from a global survey of over 1,000 industry professionals across 17 countries and 20 sectors, including manufacturing, transportation, and energy. The findings represent insights from management to C-suite executives at companies with annual revenues exceeding $100 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The report reveals that 89% of leaders prioritize cybersecurity compliance as CIOs recognize significant vulnerabilities in their operational infrastructure.
