Asset Management Method of Industrial IoT Systems for Cyber-Security Countermeasures

Cyber-security countermeasures are important for IIoT (industrial Internet of things) systems in which IT (information technology) and OT (operational technology) are integrated. The appropriate asset management is the key to creating strong security systems to protect from various cyber threats. Ho...
