Network and Security controls

Cisco strengthens integrated IT/OT network and security controls


A recent report from IDC went even further, stating that 50% of OT assets are more than 10 years old, and their security posture needs to be assessed. “Most OT networks remain unsegmented, leaving critical assets exposed and increasing the likelihood of lateral movement during attacks. Adaptive security policies and real-time segmentation are common in IT. These solutions can help minimize risks in OT without disrupting operations if they are integrated with OT visibility products,” wrote IDC’s Romain Fouchereau, senior research manager, European security.

“Managing OT security in isolation is no longer viable. Even when building a dedicated security operations center (SOC) for OT, effective threat detection requires telemetry from both the IT and OT domains,” Fouchereau wrote. “Unified threat detection enables organizations to correlate events across all domains and detect patterns and advanced threats that could otherwise go unnoticed. Detecting and responding to modern threats requires best-in-class IT security tools for each task of the security workflow. These tools need visibility and context to the industrial process.”

Cisco is not alone in its efforts to meld IT and OT networking and security. Networking competitors such as HPE/Juniper and Extreme have integration plans. Security vendors such as Palo Alto, Fortinet and others have integration capabilities as well.

Detecting Co-Resident Attacks in 5G Clouds! Detecting co-resident attacks in 5G clouds involves identifying malicious activities where attackers share physical cloud resources with victims to steal data or disrupt services. Techniques like machine learning, behavioral analysis, and resource monitoring help detect unusual patterns, ensuring stronger security and privacy in 5G cloud environments. Detecting Co-Resident Attacks in 5G Clouds In a 5G cloud environment, many different users (including businesses and individuals) share the same physical infrastructure through virtualization technologies like Virtual Machines (VMs) and containers. Co-resident attacks occur when a malicious user manages to place their VM or container on the same physical server as a target. Once co-residency is achieved, attackers can exploit shared resources like CPU caches, memory buses, or network interfaces to gather sensitive information or launch denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. Why are Co-Resident Attack...

Network Architecture

An introduction to satellite network architecture Satellite networking is a digital revolution that connects people from across the world instantly -- from enabling real-time communications to making the world a safer place. A satellite is an artificial object put into the Earth's orbit to gather and distribute crucial data. Since the late 1950s, satellites have only transmitted and received data, as bent pipe satellites weren't able to perform other functions. In modern times, a group of satellites in the same orbit forms a satellite network. Satellite networks process data and provide accurate visual and textual information. Unlike terrestrial network infrastructure, satellite network scalability isn't limited by geography and cost. According to a March 2025 report from Goldman Sachs, the global satellite market is expected to hit $108 billion by 2035, growing sevenfold from its current valuation. Satellite networks consist of the following: The ground equipment. The sa...
