🔍 Security Theater Won’t Save You – Real Operational Technology Visibility Will

📋 Most boards rely on ISO certs and audit checkboxes to feel “secure.”

💥 Reality check: attackers don’t care about your certifications – they care about your weak segmentation.

📊 Operational Technology environments are being linked to IT & cloud with zero risk modeling. Result? Massive exposure.

💡 True visibility + simulation = resilience.

🛡️ At AUMINT.io, we help boards see the blind spots – and test their real-world impact.

⚖️ Boards Are the New Cyber Risk Owners – Like It or Not

🧱 NIS2. DORA. The UK’s Telecoms Act. They all say one thing:

📌 If the board doesn’t act, they will be held personally accountable.

🔍 47% of EU CNI operators don’t plan to hire infosec staff. Meanwhile, attacks rise 87%.

🧨 This mismatch will cost lives – and reputations.

🧠 It’s time to move beyond “delegate it to IT.”

🛡️ AUMINT.io helps boards gain command over their OT/IT threat exposure with crisis-ready simulations.
