Quiz: Operational Technology Security and Network Segregation

Operational Technology (OT) systems differ from Information Technology systems because they directly control physical processes such as power generation and distribution.

The security of OT environments is important because a breach could lead to power outages or hazardous conditions for personnel.

Network segregation involves creating distinct network zones to isolate different types of systems and data.

A DMZ zone provides secure access points for external communications while maintaining separation from internal operational networks.

Effective network segregation requires proper firewall configuration to enforce access controls between network zones.
