💥 Operational Technology Threat Groups Are Growing. So Must Board Urgency.

🦠 2 new Operational Technology threat actors emerged last year alone.

🔓 70% of industrial firms had at least one OT breach.

💡 Meanwhile, 47% of orgs don’t plan to hire infosec talent.

📉 That’s a strategy for disaster – and regulators know it.

🧠 Boards can no longer treat Operational Technology security as optional or future-facing. It’s now.

🛡️ AUMINT.io runs board-level threat briefings to shift urgency into action.

💬 “Our security is fine.”

❌ Dangerous last words from a board member.

🧩 Many orgs think they’re safe because they haven’t been breached. But hackers exploit confidence gaps.

📊 85% of board members feel aligned with CISOs. Only 65% of CISOs agree.

💥 That disconnect = corporate blind spot.

🛡️ AUMINT.io facilitates alignment – with real-time threat visibility and communication frameworks.

🏥 OT attacks don’t just cost money. They threaten health, safety, even national stability.

🎯 Boards must drive Operational Technology/IT segmentation and secure-by-design policies.
