2025 State of Operational Technology and Cybersecurity Report

Operational Technology (OT) environments are becoming more connected—and more exposed—to cyber threats. Fortinet’s report reveals that organizations are maturing in both process and solution adoption, with more CISOs taking ownership of OT security and fewer intrusions reported. The study highlights growing global awareness of OT risk, rising regulatory pressure, and the adoption of best practices like segmentation, threat intelligence, and vendor consolidation. As digitalization accelerates, integrating IT and OT security remains critical to safeguarding essential infrastructure.
