Cybersecurity at the Edge: OT vs. IT

March 31, 2022
Graphic representation of how IT interfaces with OT

No one questions the need for cybersecurity these days. With attacks coming on a daily basis, the question today is “how do I secure” rather than “why should I secure” or “do I need to secure at all.” What’s less understood is the difference between securing at the OT (operational technology) level versus securing at… Read More »

Understand When COTS Will Suffice Rather Than Custom

March 25, 2022
COTS or Custom

COTS (commercial off-the-shelf) is a term that gets thrown around a lot in the embedded computer industry, particularly on the hardware side. COTS products are optimized for efficient, sometimes volume, production and come with a predetermined amount of functionality and I/O capabilities designed to meet the majority of computing needs of a broader market. When… Read More »

Does Made in the USA really make a difference? You bet it does, and the reasons for that statement are now stronger than ever, thanks to things like the pandemic, the chip shortage, the difficulties in securing end systems, counterfeit components, and on and on. This argument is amplified if you are sourcing boards and… Read More »

Increased Cybersecurity of Industrial Embedded Systems

IoT devices and networks are proliferating at an amazingly rapid pace fuelled by post-COVID’s economic recovery and capital investment. However, this proliferation is expanding the threat surface, and exposing the edge of our networks to a significantly greater risk of cyberattack. As the popularity of the IoT increases, a growing number of critical infrastructure and… Read More »
