The Control Tower Model: A New Architecture for Secure OT Modernization

The Control Tower Model: A New Architecture for Secure OT Modernization

The Control Tower Model is a critical component of a comprehensive OT security strategy.

Bottom line: The Control Tower Model is a critical component of a comprehensive OT security strategy.

What's happening: The model has been developed in collaboration with industry partners, including Siemens, Rockwell Automation, and Schneider Electric, and is being implemented across the US Department of Defense's OT networks. The model has already shown promising results in reducing the attack surface of OT systems.

What to do: Security leaders should prioritize the implementation of the Control Tower Model, and ensure that OT systems are integrated with the model to provide real-time threat intelligence and situational awareness. This can be achieved by working with vendors to implement the necessary security protocols and training personnel to effectively utilize the model.
