Dino sits down with Adeel Shaikh Muhammad, a Dubai-based cybersecurity expert and researcher with 16+ years in IT and OT security. They dive into why IT and OT teams still can't communicate effectively.
The conversation reveals why most CISOs struggle to secure manufacturing environments. Adeel shares real-world insights from securing industrial systems across the Middle East, Africa, and Asia.
They tackle the implementation gap in OT SOCs and why legacy systems remain vulnerable. The discussion covers third-party access risks, OEM warranty restrictions, and system integrator challenges.
AI might finally solve IT-OT convergence by acting as a translator between these worlds. But first, organizations need to master the fundamentals: asset inventory, vulnerability management, and network segmentation.
Most companies still haven't nailed these basics in their industrial environments. This conversation cuts through the hype to focus on what actually works.

Many devices on modern networks aren’t what their labels claim. This episode, Rob King, Director of Applied Security Research at runZero, explores white-labeled surveillance and IoT hardware, why some vendors are banned by governments, and how hidden risks can spread across enterprises. Discovery, device fingerprinting, and protocol analysis reveal what’s really connected—and why knowing your true inventory is now essential for security, compliance, and trust.

Remote access transformed overnight - and OT environments are still feeling the impact.

In this episode of Protect It All, host Aaron Crow is joined by Steve Rutherford, VP of Sales at Hyperport and former military officer, for a candid conversation on how secure remote access in operational technology (OT) has evolved - and where it’s heading next.

They unpack how COVID accelerated remote connectivity across critical infrastructure, why many traditional IT security tools fall short in OT environments, and what protection really looks like when safety, reliability, and uptime are non-negotiable. Drawing from military discipline and frontline OT experience, Steve shares a grounded perspective on managing risk in environments where failure has physical-world consequences.

You’ll learn:

How COVID permanently changed OT remote access expectations

Why IT-first security approaches don’t translate well to OT

The role of layered access controls and policy-driven permissions

How dynamic access and trust scoring are reshaping OT security

Where IT/OT convergence helps - and where it creates new risk

What leaders must prioritize to balance access, safety, and resilience

If you’re responsible for enabling remote access while protecting critical operations, this episode delivers real-world insight, practical guidance, and a forward-looking view of OT cybersecurity.

Tune in to understand what secure OT access really requires in today’s threat landscape- only on Protect It All.
