Cyber-physical Security for Data Centers: The Critical Infrastructure That Powers AI

AI is driving unprecedented data center growth — and expanding the cyber risk surface across IT, OT, and IoT environments. Attackers no longer target only data and servers; they also aim for the connected devices and control systems that keep critical facilities running. To ensure resilience, security, and operations leaders must treat IT and OT defenses as one unified mission.  ‍
Join this session for a practical look at securing the full data center ecosystem — from computers to facilities and even dedicated substations — while maintaining uptime and compliance.‍
This webinar will cover:
  • OT and IoT-tailored approaches to secure increasingly connected, internet-exposed, and often remotely maintained building management and other cyber-physical assets throughout the data center

  • Compliance with critical infrastructure regulations that apply to data centers across most major economies

  • A demo on how the Nozomi platform delivers real-time visibility, threat detection and risk mitigation across OT/IoT systems to keep data centers running

The Connected Data Center

From chillers and power generators to CCTVs and building automation, cyber-physical systems are crucial to ensuring an optimal computing and storage environment within data centers. All must be secured.

Top Cyber Risks for Data Centers

CSSPA requires organizations to implement a comprehensive cybersecurity program across four key areas. Nozomi Networks enables you to operationalize each requirement specifically for OT and IoT environments.

Internet-Exposed DCIMs

Data center infrastructure management apps (DCIMs) are often insecurely connected to the internet. Use of third-party OT/IoT infrastructure products creates significant cyber risk.

Cooling System Outages

Whether related to a cyberattack or malfunction, a cooling system outage would lead to a rapid temperature increase and require a shutdown to protect servers.

Exploitable OT/IoT Entry Points

Assets like CCTV cameras and temperature sensors use stripped-down OSs and minimal encryption or authentication, giving hackers access to critical systems.

Third-Party Vendor Products

An abundance of third-party OT/IoT assets whose security you don’t control, along with insecure access for technicians, introduces another layer of risk.
