Now that we understand fully what OTC is, how does the company go about securing this type of environment? I mean, where do they actually start? Yeah, So it always starts with visibility. And I think you'll hear this a lot. You can't secure what you can't see. And so understanding what's actually on your OT environment is really important, and therefore scanning does come into this. But I always thought that scanning an OT was a big red flag. It was a no, no, Yeah. So if you think about traditional scanning. Vulnerability scanning, you wouldn't do that in OT environment. The protocols are completely different and you would essentially cause major disruption. You knock it off the network, OK. And that essentially is what we're trying to avoid here because as you said before, it's not so much about data theft, it's disruption. So we talked about tools tenable and run zero. What what do they do differently in terms of the scanning? Yes, so the type of scanning is different. So they will use essentially the same language that these systems use for different protocols to be able to characterize what those. Systems actually are, they'll do lightweight scanning, whether that be passive or active can still happen. And then they'll essentially gather this database of the system and you'll be able to identify, OK, what is actually sitting on my network, right. So once I have that list, then what's my next step after that? Yeah. And I think this is where we start to move into exposure management, which is really important, understanding, OK, what's the exact path around these systems? Where's the exploitability? And we're like we're mentioning our previous talk about legacy systems, OK, if we can't patch these directly. What's around it that requires patching, right?
