What is the Pragmatic Operational Technology Detection course about?

Hybrid workforces generate fragmented data streams that challenge traditional detection methods. Legacy approaches often miss critical signals or create alert fatigue, leaving teams reactive instead of proactive. Without a structured, pragmatic framework, organizations risk inefficiency, compliance gaps, and operational drift.
