Bridging the OT/IT Divide in Public Sector CPS Environments

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) protection has evolved from a technical requirement into a mission-critical pillar of public sector operations. It has moved beyond just stopping cyber threats to become more focused around ensuring continuity of essential services, safeguarding public safety, and maintaining trust in the systems communities rely on every day.

For government agencies, CPS protection directly impacts mission assurance, from keeping transportation systems running to ensuring water, energy, and emergency services remain uninterrupted. Several key drivers are pushing agencies to move from reactive security measures to a structured, proactive CPS Protection Program.

By leveraging the frameworks in this playbook, you are moving beyond simple tool deployment and building a cross-functional operating muscle that protects CPS processes, your end customers, and the business’s bottom line.
