Hidden Cyber Vulnerabilities Threaten Smart Building Security
How can cyber security teams secure a smart building without first knowing what devices, systems, and connections are active in the building? That is the quandary facing building owners and managers as smart devices proliferate across their facilities, leaving a large and growing attack surface undefended. Those responsible for cyber security have to map entire networks […]
Cyber Security Falls Through the Gap Between OT & IT Responsibility
Over recent decades, as buildings have developed greater connectivity, the starkly different worlds of Operational Technology (OT) and Information Technology (IT) have found themselves converging in the emerging smart buildings space. In this new landscape, OT teams find themselves victim to cyber threats that they have never had to deal with before, while IT teams […]

Ahead of the Curve? Big Telecom to Disrupt the Smart Building Industry in South Korea
The building was once the domain of the operational technology (OT) industry until things started getting smart. As buildings began to generate more and more data, the information technology (IT) industry leveraged their expertise to take its share of the evolving market. Today, OT firms race to develop the data capabilities that will allow them […]
