Explanation

Planning a threat hunting strategy is essential for proactively searching for threats and vulnerabilities in the OT environment before they manifest into attacks. Evaluating what can go wrong before it happens is a core part of risk assessment, involving the identification and analysis of potential risks and their impacts on OT systems. Implementing strategies to automatically bring PLCs offline is generally not a responsible or safe approach in OT environments because it could disrupt critical industrial processes. Creating disaster recovery plans is important for overall business continuity but is not primarily a task of auditors during risk assessment-it is more of a broader business continuity or incident response responsibility.
