CISA and Federal Partners Release Joint Guidance for Adapting Zero Trust Pr= inciples to Operational Technology [
https://www.cisa.gov/resources-tools/r= esources/adapting-zero-trust-principles-operational-technology ] 04/29/2026=
2:00 PM EDT=20
CISA, in coordination with the Department of War, Department of Energy, Fed= eral Bureau of Investigation, and Department of State, released Adapting Ze=
ro Trust Principles to Operational Technology [
https://www.cisa.gov/resour= ces-tools/resources/adapting-zero-trust-principles-operational-technology ]=
, joint guidance for organizations applying zero trust (ZT) principles to o= perational technology (OT). Zero trust is a modern, adaptive approach to cy= bersecurity that eliminates implicit trust and requires continuously valida= ting access based on identity, context, and risk.
With advancements in technology, OT systems that were traditionally isolate=
d or manually operated are now increasingly interconnected, digitally monit= ored, and remotely controlled. This IT-OT convergence introduces new cybers= ecurity risks that make perimeter-based defenses and implicit trust models = inadequate for safeguarding OT systems and the critical physical processes = they control.
This guidance supports OT owners and operators in addressing the unique cha= llenges of transitioning to a ZT architecture, considering technology gaps = from legacy infrastructure, operational constraints, and safety requirement=
s. It focuses on establishing comprehensive asset visibility, proactively a= ddressing supply chain risks, and implementing robust identity and access m= anagement while stressing the importance of layered security measures=E2=80= =94including network segmentation, secure communication protocols, and vuln= erability management.
