Cyber-physical systems (CPS) are what Gartner^® defines as “engineered systems that orchestrate sensing, computation, control, networking and analytics to interact with the physical world (including humans). When secure, they enable safe, real-time, reliable, resilient and adaptable performance.”

Most commonly found throughout critical infrastructure and other industrial organizations, CPS encompasses the operational technology (OT) assets and rapidly proliferating range of newer types of connected devices that underpin manufacturing, power generation, transportation, and other physical processes.

In this guide, Claroty explains the importance of having a purpose-built CPS protection platform and details key criteria to evaluate when choosing a solution.
