When we ask executives with OT environments what keeps them up at night, the answer is often "insider threats". Coincidentally, I started my security career researching insider threats, and was founder of the CERT Insider Threat Center. I used to find that answer puzzling because so many organizations have insider risk programs these days. Then I realized WHY this is so concerning: it's fear of the unknown. While insider threats in IT are well-understood, no one has ever done a comprehensive study of insider threats in OT. Good news! I dove in and have been working on just that for months. I wrote a guide for OT-CERT that will be published in our portal for all members based on every case of insider threat in OT that I could find. Hear about the cases: what did they do - who did it - what could have been done to prevent it or detect/recover more quickly? Find out what I learned on November 5 at DISC 2026, hosted by @Dragos Inc. in Hanover, MD where I'm presenting "OT Insider Threat: Understand it. Stop it." DISC is in-person only and sessions are not recorded. Save your spot → https://lnkd.in/gdMfi9P7 #ICSsecurity #cybersecurity #OTcybersecurity
