Critical infrastructure and supply chains have become prime targets for attackers because of their complexity, interdependence, and potential for real-world disruption. As IT and OT environments converge, adversaries increasingly exploit weak segmentation, third-party access, and shared credentials to move laterally between enterprise systems and operational networks.

In this video, we explore how modern attacks unfold across hybrid environments and why traditional approaches—like annual tabletop exercises, awareness training, or point-in-time testing—aren’t enough to prepare teams for these scenarios. Organizations face the difficulty (if not impossibility) of safely testing OT/ICS defenses while in production, which means teams rarely get the chance to practice responding under real pressure.

That’s where Cloud Range comes in. By recreating realistic IT, OT, and supply chain environments, Cloud Range enables teams to face the same attacker behaviors they’d encounter in the real world without risking downtime or operational impact to cyber-physical systems. These simulations go beyond tools and controls to validate people, processes, and playbooks when it matters most.

For security leaders, the takeaway is clear: Critical infrastructure and supply chains demand more than theoretical readiness. To understand true risk, and reduce it, teams must practice defending interconnected, high-impact environments as they actually operate today.
