What this episode examines

If you think your OT security problem is a lack of awareness, you’re missing the fact that your hardware literally cannot handle the solution. 🔌

In this episode, we’re getting real about why legacy PLCs were never meant for modern crypto and how forcing it can actually tank your process. We walk through why deep packet inspection is often a trap and how to build a defense-in-depth strategy that moves from the network all the way down to the laws of physics. 🏗️

You need to know where the digital controls end and the mechanical interlocks begin before a "security" update shuts down your entire line. 📉
