NVIDIA Brings AI-Powered Cybersecurity to World’s Critica...

What’s Happening

So get this: As technologies and systems become more digitalized and connected across the world, operational technology (OT) environments and industrial control systems (ICS) — from energy and manufacturing to transportation and utilities — are increasingly depending on enterprise networks and the cloud.

This expands OT and ICS capabilities — but also their exposure to cyber threats.

(wild, right?)

By Itay Ozery As technologies and systems become more digitalized and connected across the world, operational technology (OT) environments and industrial control systems (ICS) — from energy and manufacturing to transportation and utilities — are increasingly depending on enterprise networks and the cloud.

The Details

Unlike traditional IT environments that manage data and applications, OT systems control real-world processes where cyber incidents can have immediate consequences for safety, availability and operational continuity. Many of these systems were originally designed for reliability and longevity, not for today’s threat techniques.

This can widen the gap between modern attacks and existing defenses. Even as OT and ICS environments modernize with improved automation, connectivity and analytics, most were not built to withstand adaptive, software-driven cyberattacks that evolve in real time.

Why This Matters

NVIDIA is collaborating with leading cybersecurity providers Akamai , Forescout, Palo Alto Networks and Xage Security, as well as industrial automation innovator Siemens, to bring accelerated computing and AI to OT cybersecurity, advancing real-time threat detection and response across critical infrastructure. These efforts represent a fundamental shift in OT and ICS cybersecurity, where security is embedded into and distributed across infrastructure, enforced at the edge and coordinated through centralized, AI-driven intelligence, bringing modern cybersecurity to the systems that keep the physical world running. Forescout and NVIDIA Bring Zero Trust to OT and ICS Environments Zero trust is a security model that removes implicit trust from networks.

The AI space continues to evolve at a wild pace, with developments like this becoming more common.
