February 11 On-Demand Event: Why Passing OT Pen Tests Still Gets Organizations Breached

Описание: Across critical infrastructure sectors, we continue to see the same troubling pattern: organizations invest in testing, receive clean reports, document accepted risks, and secure executive sign-off, only to experience operationally disruptive incidents months later. The issue isn’t negligence. It’s a fundamental mismatch between what traditional OT penetration testing is designed to validate and how modern industrial attacks actually unfold.
Today, we’re going to challenge that model.

Joining me today are Terry McCorkle, CEO and Founder of PhishCloud, and Chris Weule, Director of Operational Technology, Cyber Fusion & Strategy. Terry brings an executive and strategic perspective shaped by years of working with boards and industrial leaders navigating IT–OT risk. Chris brings deep hands-on adversarial experience, modeling how sophisticated attackers move through trusted paths, pivot across IT and OT boundaries, and remain undetected until impact occurs.

Together, they’ll walk us through why exploit validation does not equal resilience, why detection is the real failure point in most OT incidents, and how organizations can shift from report-driven security to operationally validated readiness.

Our goal today is simple: move beyond passing tests, and toward proving that your organization can actually see, stop, and contain a real attack before operations are impacted.
