AiCyberWatch Launches IT-OT Cyber Fusion Center to Advance Converged Cyber Defence
AiCyberWatch
has opened its IT-OT Cyber Fusion Center in Delhi NCR, consolidating enterprise
IT and operational technology security onto a single operations floor.
The
separation between the two has always been more organisational than technical.
IT security reports to the CISO. OT sits with engineering or plant operations,
on networks built for uptime and safety rather than confidentiality, often with
equipment that predates the security tooling now expected to protect it.
Adversaries work the seam between them. Ransomware that lands in a corporate
domain reaches production through shared directory services and flat segments;
in the other direction, an anomaly on an engineering workstation is sometimes
the first visible evidence of an intrusion that began weeks earlier in IT.
Monitoring
those environments from separate consoles, staffed by teams with different
reporting lines and different definitions of an incident, leaves that seam
unwatched. The Fusion Center is built to close it: IT and OT telemetry, threat
intelligence, security analytics, investigation and response, DFIR,
orchestration and AI-assisted operations, all held in one operational context.
"The
boundary between IT and OT is an org chart, not a security control. Attackers
worked that out years ago; most defence architectures still haven’t caught up.
What we have built is one floor where both halves of the environment are
visible to the same analysts at the same moment — because that is the only way
anyone spots a threat crossing between them." Said, Siddharth Jain,
CEO, AiCyberWatch
