この問題を理解するには、まず OT 環境の本質と製品ライフサイクルを知る必要があります。現場の産業機器はオフィス用コンピューターとは大きく異なります。PLC や SCADA(監視制御およびデータ収集)システム、産業用ロボットなどは、10~20 年前のレガシー OS で稼働していることが多いのです。さらに、ベンダーは予期せぬ生産ライン停止を避けるため、安易なファームウェア更新を推奨していません。また、中小規模の製造業では専任のサイバーセキュリティ担当者が不在なことも多く、ネットワーク分割も不十分なため、インシデントがネットワーク内で封じ込められないケースが目立ちます。
これこそが OT サイバーセキュリティの本質的なパラドックスです:
