The Guide to Managing Multiple OT Vendors On Site
We’ve rounded up some of the most common challenges faced by OT managers with multiple vendors, and best practices you can follow to effectively project manage your teams and prevent problems from cropping up down the road.
How OT Networks Drive Decarbonization and Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency is at the heart of many organizations’ policies to address their overall carbon footprints. For facilities operators, campus managers, and their vendors, the drive to decarbonize falls under their purview. Let’s look at what exactly decarbonization is, what impacts this policy has on OT networks, and some of the ways facilities and systems integrators have begun to tackle the problem.
Is BACnet/SC the Key to Securing OT Networks?
The success of BACnet/SC will depend on how widely it is adopted and how well it integrates with other security technologies. That said, with the right implementation strategies, and a focus on maintaining flexibility and interoperability, BACnet/SC has the potential to play a central role in securing OT networks against future threats.
