Recovery & Containment

Most industrial security frameworks treat OT recovery like IT recovery. That's the problem.

In IT: Containment and recovery focus on systems and data.
In OT: Containment affects physical processes, and recovery ends only when those processes are safe and predictable again.

The timeline? Days to weeks, not hours. Because you can't "rollback" physical impact.

This month's insight:

• Why OT containment is harder than IT
• Real production disruption patterns
• Why recovery is fundamentally different
• The slow-by-design reality

Next week, part 2 on the preparation that matters; what must be in place before an incident?
