From ships and cities to hospitals and airports, Operational Technology (OT) keeps the world running. The problem? It was never designed with cybersecurity in mind.

In this episode of Threat Talks, host Karin Muller is joined by TC Hoot (VP of Contracts at TAC) and Luca Cipriano (Threat Intel Specialist at ON2IT) to explore how airports, hospitals, ports, and even water systems can be compromised.

Key topics they tackle:

🛳️ Why are modern ships, airports, hospitals and even cities targeted?

🛡️ What makes OT so hard to secure compared to IT?

✈ What do real-world OT threats look like and how can we defend against them?

If you’ve ever asked “how could a fish tank lead to a casino breach?” or “can someone actually hack an airport’s baggage system?” this one’s for you.

They discuss:

✅ Why Zero Trust isn’t a product, and what it actually is

🗺️ The five steps and four core principles of Zero Trust
