On October 13, IPSI nonresident senior fellow Victor Atkins spoke on an episode of the Industrial Cybersecurity Pulse Cybersecurity Awareness Month podcast series. He discussed issues such as patching organizational and personal cyber vulnerabilities, IT/OT integration, and emerging technologies such as AI and machine learning. Atkins noted that with the increasing automation of critical infrastructure sectors from communications to shipping, the target for cyberattacks is increasing; however, he explained, private-sector threat intelligence entities are increasing opportunities to discover and respond to these threats.
