The Australian Signals Directorate’s Australian Cyber Security Centre (ASD's ACSC) has released new guidance to help critical infrastructure protect their systems and online supply chains.
Designing robust cyber security measures for operational technology (OT) environments is vital to protect the safety, availability, integrity and confidentiality of essential services. It is important that decision makers are able to make informed and comprehensive decisions when designing, implementing, and managing IT environments.
ASD has consulted with industry to develop Principles of operational technology cyber security, which have been co-sealed by our international intelligence partners. The principles are designed to help leaders, developers, and other stakeholders consider key cyber security risks in OT environments and actions they can take to secure their OT.
You can use the principles for OT to identify and mitigate the cyber security risks within your operational technology and specific requirements.
All organisations can access resources for critical infrastructure. You can also join the free ASD Cyber Security Partnership Program as a Network Partner to receive the latest cyber threat alerts and cyber security advice.
