Cappelli says the OT-CERT aims to address a serious gap in securing industrial infrastructure: the lack of OT-specific resources readily available to the industrial infrastructure community.

In a video interview with Information Security Media Group at RSA Conference 2022, Cappelli discusses:

  • The mission of the Dragos OT-CERT;
  • The threats and vulnerabilities the OT-CERT aims to respond to and mitigate;
  • The role partnerships will play and the partners involved in the initiative.

Cappelli is responsible for launching and leading Dragos's OT Cyber Emergency Readiness Team, or CERT, a community resource center that is available exclusively for industrial asset owners and operators. Prior to Dragos, Cappelli served as vice president and CISO at Rockwell Automation.
