Defending Operational Technology from the Emerging Threat of Agentic AI-Based Adversaries

Industrial and critical infrastructure sectors face a new wave of cybersecurity risk. Autonomous, agentic AI-based adversaries can probe, learn, and compromise Operational Technology (OT) environments with unprecedented speed and creativity.

These threats go far beyond traditional malware. By automating reconnaissance, vulnerability chaining, lateral movement, and evasion, agentic AI agents systematically target OT systems to steal data, disrupt operations, and erode trust in process integrity.

This paper explains:

  • The unique nature of these threats
  • How they exploit gaps between IT and OT security practices
  • Actionable strategies to close those gaps with modern Zero-Trust, continuous monitoring, and policy-based controls

We also show how Neeve’s integrated platform, combining Asset Discovery, Zero-Trust Remote and Cloud Access, and OT-specific SASE capabilities to help defenders stay ahead of these adversaries.
