Vulnerability Management Challenges in IoT and OT Environments: Strategies for Securing Critical Assets

 The article discusses the unique challenges of managing vulnerabilities in IoT and OT environments. These challenges include device diversity, limited patching options, operational disruptions, inadequate security protocols, and limited security visibility.

To address these issues, the article suggests adopting a risk-based approach, prioritizing critical systems, using lightweight vulnerability scanning tools, enforcing strict access controls, and investing in IoT/OT-specific security solutions. Collaboration between IT and OT teams, along with network segmentation and patch-testing, can help mitigate risks. Overall, a tailored, proactive security strategy is crucial for securing IoT and OT devices against evolving threats.
