Podcast: Industrial Cybersecurity InsiderEpisode: How OT Managed Services Are Revolutionizing Industrial CybersecurityPub date: 2025-12-09Get Podcast Transcript →powered by Listen411 - fast audio-to-text and summarizationDino sits down with industrial automation and industrial cybersecurity expert Kevin Kumpf, fresh off the floor of Rockwell Automation Fair 2025. They discuss why OT managed services are finally becoming viable for manufacturing, the critical 80/20 split between people and technology challenges, and how the industry's "silver tsunami" of retiring talent is forcing a reckoning. Kevin shares insights on building unified platforms that can manage everything from 30-year-old paper tape systems to AI-powered smart factories, why IT's "patch now" mentality fails in OT environments, and how the DG 360 platform is delivering true cyber-physical convergence today - not tomorrow. They discuss the reality that most OT cybersecurity tools only discover 30% of plant assets, the importance of human-in-the-loop decision making, and why the OT ecosystem - not IT - must drive the managed services revolution. This is a must-listen for anyone struggling with the complexity of protecting and managing modern manufacturing facilities.Chapters:(00:00:00) - Introduction and Rockwell Automation Fair Recap(00:01:43) - The OT Managed Services Evolution and Rebranding(00:04:15) - The Three-Legged Stool: IT, OT, and OEMs(00:07:32) - Point Solutions vs. Unified Platforms in Manufacturing(00:10:45) - The DG 360 Vision: 360-Degree Plant Visibility(00:14:28) - The Silver Tsunami and Training Challenges(00:18:22) - Alert Fatigue and Actionable Intelligence(00:22:45) - Software Defined Automation and Legacy Systems(00:26:18) - Why OT Must Drive the Cybersecurity Conversation(00:30:35) - Real-Time Demo and Implementation ReadinessLinks And Resources:Kevin Kumpf on LinkedInWant to Sponsor an episode or be a Guest?

Podcast: Exploited: The Cyber Truth Episode: The Asymmetric Advantage: How Cybersecurity Can Outpace AdversariesPub date: 2025-12-04Get Podcast Transcript →powered by Listen411 - fast audio-to-text and summarizationIn this episode of Exploited: The Cyber Truth, host Paul Ducklin sits down with RunSafe Founder and CEO Joseph M. Saunders to explore why the future of cyber defense depends on disrupting attacker economics rather than racing to keep up with every new threat. Joe breaks down how organizations can gain an asymmetric advantage by reducing exploitability across entire classes of vulnerabilities, especially persistent memory safety flaws that continue to expose critical systems. He shares why adding lightweight, automated protections at build time is one of the fastest ways to shift the cost curve onto attackers without forcing massive code rewrites or slowing development teams down. Together, Paul and Joe discuss: Why attackers’ resource advantage requires a new defensive mindsetThe power of “patchless” protection in embedded and OT environmentsWhy memory safety flaws persist and how to neutralize them at scaleThe risks of AI-generated code and how to prevent silent vulnerabilitiesHow Secure by Design practices improve resilience for critical infrastructure If you're responsible for securing embedded systems, OT assets, or long-lived devices where patch cycles are slow and risk is high, this episode offers a new mindset that gives defenders the upper hand.The podcast and artwork embedded on this page are from RunSafe Security, which is the property of its owner and not affiliated with or endorsed by Listen Notes, Inc.

Drawing powerful parallels to safety protocols, they explain why cybersecurity must become as ingrained in plant culture as wearing a hard hat on the factory floor.Their bottom line: Back up your beliefs with data, treat every system as if it's connected, and verify, don't just trust, your security posture. In OT cybersecurity, perception isn't reality, and that gap could cost not only millions but also brand perception and even human life.This episode is a must-listen for anyone serious about protecting their industrial environments.Chapters:00:00:00 - Kicking Off: Are You Truly Secure or Just Comfortable?00:01:15 - OT Security Reality Check: Do You Really Know Your Risks?00:01:45 - The Hidden Challenges Holding OT Security Back00:03:15 - Lack of Skilled Resources: The Biggest Barrier to Security00:05:30 - Security Frameworks: Are They Reaching the Plant Floor?00:06:15 - The Dangerous Myth of “Isolated” OT Systems00:07:58 - From Theory to Action: Winning Strategies for OT Security00:12:13 - Leadership’s Role in Cybersecurity: Who’s Driving the Change?00:19:55 - No More Blind Spots: Key Takeaways for a Secure FutureLinks And Resources:Want to Sponsor an episode or be a Guest?
