Decline in Attacks on Industrial and Critical Infrastructure OT Systems

📌 Attacks on operational technology (OT) systems within industrial and critical infrastructure sites have decreased, with a reported 25% reduction in incidents causing physical consequences. The decline is attributed to a temporary lull in ransomware activity and hackers' limited familiarity with OT environments. No specific dates, technical details, or CVE identifiers were provided in the report. The focus was on OT systems, which are used to monitor and control physical processes in sectors like energy, manufacturing, and utilities. The article did not specify geographic regions or threat actors involved in the attacks.
