Today on Cyber Work, we continue our deep dive into industrial control systems and operational technology security by talking with Donovan Tindill of DeNexus. Now, Iβm just going to come out and say it: Tindill's episode is like a cybersecurity career seminar in a box, and a must-not-miss if youβre interested in not just ICS and OT security, but specifically the realm of Risk Assessment.
