Cybersecurity for Industrial Automation (ICS/SCADA) and OT

The industrial sector suffered the most of cyber attacks last year!

Industrial and civil infrastructure are an increasingly important target for cyber attacks. The risk of a cyber attack is not only increasing, the attacks are also more advanced and complex. For the first time in 5 years, the number of cyber attacks in industry exceeds the number of cyber incidents in the financial sector. Security of industrial and process environments therefore requires the highest priority!

What will you learn in this highly topical ICS (cyber)security training?

Security for industrial automation and critical infrastructure is a hot topic. This 4-day industrial (cyber)security training is fully focused on the security approach of your ICS, SCADA and DCS systems. After completing this training, you will have acquired more than excellent knowledge for managing industrial (cyber)security within your own organization. You can set up and implement policy in accordance with national and international laws and regulations. You will learn how to arm your production network or process installation against cyber attacks, based on the IEC 62443 cybersecurity guideline for industrial automation and control systems and numerous other guidelines and standards. Complying with and implementing the new European NIS 2 Directive on cybersecurity will also be an important subject in this training.

During the training, the setting up and implementation of a well-functioning (cyber)security environment of industrial control systems (ICS) will be discussed. As ICS systems are increasingly integrated with IT networks, concrete security recommendations are made to improve the security of both the organization and the IT infrastructure. The successful integration of risk management and industrial control systems (ICS) and the ICS security architecture are also important parts of this highly topical training.
