OT100-WS: OT Security – Effectively Protecting Industrial Systems from Cyberattacks

Web Seminar: Security - Industry 4.0

Modern production systems are increasingly exposed to cybersecurity risks due to their high degree of networking and the integration of standard IT components. At the same time, established IT security measures cannot be applied without restrictions in this environment. Why this is the case and how industrial cybersecurity can be effectively implemented is what you will learn in this web seminar.

Common OT Security Myths

Security through proprietary systems and protocols
Protection through air gaps, firewalls and serial communication
(unsolicited) secure implementation by vendors / integrators
Complete protection through safety systems

Typical Vulnerabilities and Security Challenges (from consulting practice)

Missing/limited network security (segmentation, modems, wifi, etc.)
Insufficiently secured remote access (internal/external)
Insecure use of mobile devices (engineering laptops, etc.) and USB sticks
Limited physical security of OT infrastructure

Differences between IT and OT Security Measures

Malware protection
Network segmentation
Vulnerability scans
Security patching
Security monitoring and incident response
Security awareness

Q & A Session

Objectives:

Modern production facilities are increasingly exposed to cybersecurity risks. The web seminar OT Security – Effectively protecting industrial facilities from cyberattacks provides you with an initial overview of how cybersecurity in the context of industrial production can be assessed and improved.

Participants will learn among other things

how essential threats can be appropriately classified
what typical vulnerabilities exist and what their (potential) impacts are
within what framework established IT security approaches can be applicable in OT
what fundamental principles have been established in industrial cybersecurity

Target audience:

CISOs and other IT security officers of manufacturing companies
IT and cybersecurity experts
Production system administrators
Engineers and technicians from automation technology
OT administrators
Product / development managers at automation technology manufacturers

Prerequisites:

To be able to follow the course content and learning pace in the web seminar OT Security – Effectively Protecting Industrial Systems from Cyberattacks, the following knowledge is advantageous:

Basic IT knowledge
Basic knowledge in IT security
