Visibility is Strategic: Technical Strategies to Minimize Risks and Cyber Insurance Impacts​

Wednesday, October 29, 2025
2:05 PM - 2:45 PM
Trippe Room (Breakouts/Breakfast & Lunch Sessions)

About This Session

The rising complexity and threat level in Operational Technology (OT) environments—the industrial control systems that run critical infrastructure have fundamentally changed the relationship between cybersecurity practices and cyber insurance. Insurers are no longer simply covering losses or believing spreadsheets; they are demanding evidence of mature risk reduction practices, underpinned by comprehensive visibility into the OT environment, as a foundational control for coverage.
