Five perspectives on what isolation guidance doesn't tell you, and what to do about it.
On July 28, 2026, CISA and other agencies released joint guidance titled "CI Fortify – Advice for Isolating Vital Systems," directing critical infrastructure operators to proactively isolate vital OT systems from unreliable third-party networks and sustain essential operations independently. Within days, water and wastewater utilities in at least a dozen U.S. states were living that guidance against real cyberattacks.
Isolation is the just one part of keeping critical operations running. Staying operational while isolated, coordinating people, reaching a response team, reporting to the state and CISA, is the gap most plans leave open. Join us for an informative session about what CI Fortify asks operators to do, what it costs, and what it leaves unaddressed.
