What is the Production-Grade Operational Technology course about?
As operational environments expand across geographies and cloud-connected systems, legacy detection methods fail to keep pace. Manual processes and fragmented tooling create blind spots, delay response, and complicate compliance reporting, even when teams are highly skilled.
