Secrets To Passing A Cybersecurity Audit: An Auditor's Perspective

Large Language Models (LLMs), a sub-set of the AI tools category, are helping security teams innovate like never before. While AI won’t replace teams in Security Operations Centers (SOCs) anytime soon, it can deliver scale, accelerate response times, and enhance real-time operations when used effectively. At a broader enterprise level, while organizations are eager to harness AI for efficiency and actionable insights, its rapid evolution also introduces new, hard-to-measure risks, requiring a fresh approach to governance and compliance.

Cybersecurity strategies have traditionally centered on protecting IT systems: data, networks, endpoints, and cloud environments. But as industrial systems, critical infrastructure, and production environments grow increasingly digitized, attackers are shifting their focus to operational technology (OT) environments, where the majority of organizations still lack basic protections. Why? OT is fundamentally different from IT: it prioritizes uptime, safety, and continuity, and it wasn’t designed with modern threats in mind. Join Cybolt's Erik Holmes, Vice President, Managed Security Services and Enrique Azuara, Vice President, OT Security, to learn how organizations can secure OT alongside IT, without disrupting operations. They’ll outline practical strategies for building integrated security and compliance programs across both domains.
