SCADA & ICS Cyber Security Course

Target Audience

The purpose of the workshop is to educate engineers on cyber risks and defense and educate them on challenges and solutions which are needed for protecting ICS and SCADA systems. Upon completion of this 16 hours workshop the participants will acquire knowledge in the field of industrial systems’ cyber defense measures, understand attack vectors and defense processes and will be better prepared the future challenges.

ICS Cyber Security Overview

Reliable and safe operation of Industrial Control Systems (ICS) and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems are considered critical for a broad range of industries supporting the wellbeing on a national level.

The growing convergence of IT and ICS, long-time separated domains, calls for a special attention and adoption of ICS-oriented best practices.

That being said, these functionalities can be jeopardised internally by an incentivised individual, or through remote access by a hostile organisation; Hence appropriate preventive measures should be taken to mitigate these breaches and minimize possible damages.

Training structure

The actual training will be via the Internet and divided to 8 sessions of 2 hours, including time for Q&A. The training will be structured taking into consideration their basic knowledge and background of participants in the field of IT and ICS. Each session will include ~ 40 slides, total of ~300+ slides will be presented.
