For financial services companies, including banks, insurance companies, and investment firms, the DORA (Digital Operational Resilience) Act is a new piece of EU regulation that threatens to pose a bigger challenge than GDPR.

According to a recent study, 86% of multinational corporations regard sustainability as the most important factor for top level decision-making. Indeed, over 3,900 companies have now formally committed to clear carbon reduction targets for measuring and reducing CO2 emissions.

In the final blog of our three-part series, we explore the imperative of aligning with NIS2 regulations. Dónal Munnelly, BT's CyberSecurity Proposition Manager, highlights the directive's aim to bolster industry resilience against cyber threats and emphasises the need for long-term planning amidst evolving risks.

To close the gap between where you are and where you need to be for NIS2 compliance, you need to know where to start. NIS2 tailored workshops will focus on the specific areas around cybersecurity that the new EU directive is centred around. Find out more within our second blog in our NIS2 series.

In our first blog in a three-part series, we discuss what the NIS2 Directive is and how the US along with other global multinationals can prepare to meet the regulation deadline.

Discover how BT addresses Operational Technology (OT) security risks in this insightful blog by Dónal Munnelly, CyberSecurity Proposition Manager. Learn about the challenges of OT convergence, the importance of cultural alignment, and the steps BT takes to protect OT environments.

Global commitments to realising net zero are driving a rethink on what represents ‘business value’ – what could this look like for organisations?

As 2023 comes to an end, we wanted to take a look back at some of the innovative technology and hot topics that have been in the spotlight over the last 12 months.

Operational Technology (OT) is now a prime target for cyberattacks with more than 80% of events starting with an IT system compromise, according to 2023 research by Rockwell Automation. This creates a problem for OT-dependent businesses, whether it’s manufacturing, utilities or food production, because IT and OT teams have historically existed in different worlds, culturally as well as technically, creating an uneasy divide that now needs to be bridged.

With digital transformation the best route to optimisation, it’s imperative that industrial organisations build in security to protect OT in an integrated world.

Most organisations have years of experience in securing their IT systems, but OT is new territory for them. Industry standards and frameworks can help to guide this necessary work, win support from the business, and target investment to where it’s needed most.
