Title: Cybersecurity for the Operational Technology Environment

Abstract:
The Cybersecurity for the Operational Technology Environment (CyOTE) program, funded by Department of Energy, Office of Cybersecurity, Energy Security and Emergency Response (CESER), works with energy sector partners and the Idaho National Laboratory (INL), to develop capabilities enabling energy sector organizations to independently detect adversarial tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) within their operational technology (OT) environments. These actions support goals to increase the cybersecurity and resilience of America’s power grid.
