FragmentationFragmentedEstimate

Not separately classified. Securing industrial control systems is a different discipline from IT security: the equipment runs for decades, cannot be patched on a maintenance window, and fails physically rather than financially. Specialist expertise is scarce and the regulatory pressure on utilities and manufacturers is rising, which makes this the most defensible niche on the page.
