Systems must therefore be protected-through measures such as continuous security monitoring, network segmentation and limited user access. <\/p>\n<p>Under a zero trust approach, &#8220;resilience comes not from assuming adversaries can be kept out, but from designing systems that can detect intrusions, continue to operate safely, contain disruptions and recover&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bankinfosecurity.com\/cybersecurity-experts-unimpressed-cisa-ot-guidance-a-31575\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cybersecurity Experts Unimpressed With CISA OT Guidance https:\/\/www.bankinfosecurity.com\/cybersecurity-experts-unimpressed-cisa-ot-guidance-a-31575 Publish Date: 2026-05-01 23:33:00 Source Domain: www.bankinfosecurity.com&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":238089,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/ismg-cdn.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com\/articles\/ot-cybersecurity-experts-unimpressed-cisa-ot-guidance-image_large-4-a-31575.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[57],"class_list":["post-238088","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cybersecurity","tag-security"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/238088"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=238088"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/238088\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":238090,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/238088\/revisions\/238090"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/238089"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=238088"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=238088"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=238088"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
