Government agencies, defense contractors, and critical infrastructure organizations are increasingly automating monitoring, detection, and production systems to improve efficiency and operational control. However, these advancements also expand the cybersecurity attack surface and increase the potential impact of a compromise, including operational disruption and security risks.
