Delving into Network Segmentation-Based Reference Architecture – the Purdue Model
From introducing you to Industry 4.0, securing the OT/IoT infrastructure, the relevance of cybersecurity in the OT/IoT industry, and how to overcome some of the challenges present in OT/IoT, we’ll move straight on to addressing the architecture followed in the industry today. It is very important to get a clear picture of the architecture implemented by organizations and the networks connecting devices.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Zero-trust architecture
- Network segmentation in the IoT/OT environment
- Understanding the layers of the Purdue model
- How layers disrupt security when not managed well
