"Does the OT side understand anything about cloud? No, that's not their job. Whose job is it?

If you don't accept, if you don't allow some leadership people from those teams in and start building out your cloud team, you're going to quickly fall behind the times, you're going to be deploying solutions that are vulnerable to remote attacks." — Don C.
