During question time, @RajivShahMDR says that companies need to think about why they are combining IT and OT systems and to understand the risks associated. Some systems may be considered too essential to risk connecting to IT systems
Jeremy Hulse from @ThalesAustralia says that Australia has done a great job lately at bringing cyber security to the fore and considering it an important issue
.@rachael_falk says that standards are great, but they don't always equal security or compliance. We should think about where the board will focus its time. It's about working out what is the riskiest environment and focusing on general cyber hygiene...
.@DaniellesCave asks what 'low hanging fruit' are there from the policy perspective: @RajivShahMDR answered that increasing basic awareness and understanding is 'low hanging fruit' in the cyber world. Many people don't understand how interconnected systems are
.@RajivShahMDR also says that the risk calculus, priorities and equipment lifetime has changed. Firewalls might protect web server and IT systems but not OT systems. We need to get IT and OT people working together
