Strengthening OT Security with Robust Password Policies

🔒 Operational technology (OT) environments underpin critical infrastructure but frequently lag behind IT in cybersecurity maturity. Strong password policies mitigate risks from outdated hardware, shared accounts, remote vendor access, and credential reuse. Core measures include prioritizing password length, enforcing rotation with reuse prevention, and adopting password vaults. Combined with MFA, network segmentation and Privileged Access Workstations, these practices form a resilient OT security posture.
