Why IT/OT Convergence Increases Cyber Risk in Critical Infrastructure

In this video, RunSafe Security’s CTO explains why legacy OT devices are more vulnerable than ever and what organizations must do to defend against modern cyber threats.

IT/OT Convergence Risks

The Risks of Connecting Legacy OT to Modern IT Networks

As critical infrastructure evolves, so do the threats targeting it. One of the biggest shifts in recent years is the convergence of IT (Information Technology) and OT (Operational Technology) systems. While this integration improves visibility and remote management, it also expands the attack surface in significant ways.

In this short video, RunSafe Security CTO explains:

  • Why OT systems were never designed for network connectivity

  • How post-COVID remote work accelerated OT exposure

  • What risks arise when legacy devices meet modern IT networks

  • Practical steps to reduce risk on both sides of the IT/OT line

Whether you’re managing industrial control systems, water treatment facilities, or power grids, this is a must-watch for security leaders navigating the blurred lines of IT and OT.
