This peer discussion will explore how data center leaders are securing the connected infrastructure that keeps modern facilities running as AI workloads increase demands on power, cooling, building management, and other critical systems. Participants will discuss how to gain visibility into connected facility assets, identify the systems that present the greatest risk to uptime, align cybersecurity, infrastructure, and facilities teams, and reduce exposure through segmentation, secure remote access, and least-privilege controls. The conversation will also examine how AI-driven cyber threats, legacy systems, third-party access, and increasingly interconnected infrastructure are changing the risk landscape, and what organizations can do to strengthen resilience before a cyber incident becomes an operational outage.
Expert Guest
Harel Ben David– Subject Matter Expert
Harel works closely with organizations navigating the growing convergence between IT and cyber-physical systems, including the power, cooling, building-management, and other connected technologies that support modern data centers.
He brings a broad perspective on how organizations can improve visibility, strengthen access controls, reduce exposure across critical systems, and manage cyber risk without disrupting operations. His experience makes him a valuable resource for discussions around resilience, uptime, and protecting the infrastructure that modern data centers increasingly depend on.
