IT and OT convergence is transforming oil and gas in ways neither function could have imagined. One result is that all facets (upstream, midstream, and downstream) are investing in digital technology. As a leader in enterprise and industrial networking, Cisco is uniquely positioned to help unite IT and operations for digitization initiatives that save money, increase safety and security, and improve operations. Oil and gas operations have always been a rich target for cyberattacks, given the expanded attack surface across connected assets. Refineries also risk physical damage, facility downtime, and breaches of customer data and intellectual property. Cisco industrial security will help you segment the OT environment, but also detect suspicious traffic flows, policy violations, and compromised devices.
