Digital Fault Lines: South African infrastructure cyber-readiness survey

?source=webinar_registrant

Other critical infrastructure (water, transport, telecoms, etc.)

Real-time, integrated visibility across IT and OT

Partial visibility – some blind spots remain

A dedicated, cross-functional IT and OT team

No clear or single owner – it is fragmented

Third-party connection points acting as entry points

No centralised visibility across connected parties

Inconsistent security standards between operators

Fully converged – one team, shared tooling and visibility

Partially converged – some shared processes, separate teams

Early stage – mostly siloed, but aware of the gap

Not started – IT and OT run entirely separately

Yes, an attempt or near miss we detected and contained

Suspected, but we could not confirm it because of limited visibility

A single accountable critical-infrastructure cyber regulator

Mandatory OT asset-inventory and incident-reporting rules

Adoption of recognised OT security standards such as IEC 62443

Skills development and training pipelines

Stronger OEM and vendor security obligations

Critical – our single biggest constraint

Significant – one of several major barriers
