arXiv:2608.30332v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Industrial Control Systems (ICS) are the backbone of many critical infrastructure sectors; however, their growing level of connectivity, long lifespan and integration with the Information Technology (IT) environment introduces numerous cybersecurity challenges. The merging of Operational Technology (OT) and IT along with the deployment of Industry 4.0 technologies increases the attack surface of ICS environments, which in turn makes them more vuln

Editorial Analysis

Why it matters

With NIS2 raising the bar for critical-infrastructure security, access to quality ICS datasets is key to building and validating robust detection capabilities.

What to do

Leverage the catalogued testbeds to validate your OT detection models against realistic attack scenarios before NIS2 audits.
