2.12.2021 01:02:35 CET | Business Wire | Press release
Applied Risk, a leading global provider of industrial cyber security solutions, is pleased to announce the release of a new report describing current conditions in the Operational Technology (OT) Security realm and offering insight into emerging OT Security Trends.
The report, entitled “Architecting the Next Generation for OT Security,” is based on data collected by the Ponemon Institute from more than 1,000 IT and OT Security practitioners (United States and Europe). The research was then complemented by input from Applied Risk’s own engagements and assessments as well as analysis by its subject matter experts (SMEs).
The report notes that the sector has been shaped by factors including lower-than-ideal staff levels, the adoption of risk-based and OT-specific standards, and the failure to adopt enabling technologies. It also addresses urgent matters such as questions about ownership of OT Security Leadership, concerns about access management and the promise of new technologies such as cloud computing.
Additionally, the report seeks to identify and illuminate the issues that will drive the development of OT Security over the next two to four years. It takes note of plans to expand the OT Security headcount and expand the skill pool of the workforce at large, explains how IT/OT convergence can help generate solutions to security challenges, and examines the potential benefits of Security Operations Centres.
The report also offers added value in the form of recommendations and practical steps that organisations can take to address pain points related to people, processes and technologies.
Jalal Bouhdada, founder and CEO of Applied Risk, described the report as insightful and forward-looking. “With this report, Applied Risk seeks to shed light on the future of industrial cyber security,” he commented. “We’ve utilised independent research and insights from our own SMEs to generate a framework for gaining a deeper understanding of the OT Security situation.”

BlueSnap, Powered by Payroc, Launches Local Acquiring in New Zealand to Boost Approval Rates and Reduce Cross-Border Costs28.4.2026 15:00:00 CEST | Press release
BlueSnap, powered by Payroc, today announced the availability of local acquiring in New Zealand, expanding its global payment orchestration capabilities and enabling businesses to process transactions domestically. Local acquiring allows businesses with a legal entity in New Zealand to process payments through domestic acquiring banks rather than routing transactions cross-border. This helps increase authorization rates, reduce payment failures, and lower transaction costs, critical factors for businesses selling into the region. Why Local Acquiring in New Zealand Matters For B2B and B2C businesses operating globally, cross-border payments often lead to higher fees and lower approval rates. Building local acquiring infrastructure independently requires managing multiple bank relationships, compliance, and integrations, making it costly and complex. BlueSnap simplifies this by providing local acquiring through a single platform, allowing businesses with a legal entity in New Zealand to
