What role does encryption play in securing communications between OT systems and devices?
Encryption plays a crucial role in securing communications between OT (Operational Technology) systems and devices by using algorithms to encode data transmitted over networks. It ensures that data is not accessible to unauthorized entities even if intercepted, providing confidentiality and integrity to the communication.Encryption in OT systems prevents data breaches, tampering, and unauthorized access, thus safeguarding critical infrastructure and operations.
