Jointly Organized by CAD, EVD and AMC
Programme
Highlights:
Studies show more
than half of industrial control systems have faced cyber-attacks. The magnitude of these attacks must not be
undermined as it can result in catastrophic disasters (e.g. Stuxnet attack
which hit Iran in 2010). Many factories nowadays still run on vulnerable legacy
systems designed back in the times where OT security was rarely a concern. With IT / OT converging rapidly within
organizations, these systems are becoming ever more vulnerable to attacks. A successful attack on the industrial system
will not only cause downtime but potentially result to loss of lives.
How is OT network
different from IT? What measures can we
take to protect these critical systems?
This talk aims to introduce the fundamentals of industrial cyber
security including how current technology can be used to discover existing or
potential threats within the OT network.
