🔒✈️ Foreign Aircraft, Domestic Risks — An Exercise in IT/OT Cybersecurity

I’m proud to share my new article published in CSO Online:
“Foreign Aircraft, Domestic Risks”

This piece isn’t just about aviation — it’s a real-world exercise in cybersecurity at the intersection of IT and OT. Using the example of a foreign-donated aircraft retrofitted for U.S. government use, I explore how hidden risks can emerge when digital infrastructure (IT) converges with operational systems (OT).

💡 Core themes:

IT/OT convergence in aviation and defense
Risks of embedded foreign technology
Supply chain and firmware threats
Practical applications of blue-team defense strategies

Whether you’re in cybersecurity, defense, or critical infrastructure, this scenario offers valuable insights into the real-world complexity of securing hybrid environments.

Let us know if you need help with cybersecurity or compliance issues. I am also available for speaking events..
