How IT/OT Segmentation Stops Lateral Movement from Smart Devices

From printers and cameras to MRI and heart monitoring systems, connected smart devices can create dangerous attack paths inside your network if they’re not properly segmented. In this 1-minute video, we explain why separating IT and OT networks is critical for preventing lateral movement — and how a single compromised device can become a launchpad for a larger breach.

We discuss real-world examples from manufacturing and healthcare, where outdated or unpatchable systems leave organizations vulnerable, and share how strong segmentation and monitoring can block attackers before they spread.

For a deeper dive into how attackers exploit insecure devices, watch How I Met Your Printer by Tom Pohl on YouTube, or read our blog on printer hacking: From Hotel Printers to Home Offices: Securing the Last Endpoint You Forgot.
