However, traditional IT security solutions don’t interoperate with XIoT assets, lack context for effective threat prevention and detection, and disrupt operations, CrowdStrike said in a press release. The mass convergence of IT and OT forces security teams to secure critical infrastructure systems. IT/OT convergence driving IoT security challenges, risks

The challenges posed to organizations and security teams in effectively securing diverse IoT resources remain stark, while the threats posed to IoT assets subject enterprises to significant risks, attacks, and vulnerabilities.
