EmberOT Founder Interviewed re: The Intersection of IT and OT

In Episode 49 of the PrOTect IT All podcast, host Aaron Crow sits down with Jori VanAntwerp, founder of EmberOT, at the S4 ICS conference to explore how effective cybersecurity in critical infrastructure demands more than just technology. They discuss real-world lessons learned from both vendor and asset owner perspectives, emphasizing the “speed of trust” needed to align security goals with operational realities.

From the importance of modular architectures and AI-driven insights to the nuance of building partnerships (rather than just making sales), this episode highlights practical strategies for protecting OT environments without getting in the way of productivity.

If you’ve ever wondered how to strike the balance between robust cyber defense and real-world operational constraints, this conversation delivers helpful ideas and inspiration.
