Outline: Discuss how, despite lessons from Stuxnet in 2010, US critical infrastructure (like energy and water systems) remains exposed to operational technology (OT) threats. Reference recent Congressional hearings and rising cyberattacks. Include stats on attack surges and advice for securing legacy systems.
Key Points:
Gaps in OT vs. IT security: Air-gapped networks aren't enough anymore.
Recent examples: Increased disruptions at airlines and other sectors in July 2025.
Actionable steps: Implement zero-trust models, regular audits, and employee training.
