Objectives:

The participants of the course OT300 OT Pentesting acquire the theoretical as well as practical fundamentals for planning, implementation, evaluation and documentation of OT security assessments/penetration tests, can apply these in selected test scenarios and transfer them to their own OT devices or entire OT environments (their own production systems).

Target audience:

  • Blue Teams / Security Teams / Security Practitioners
  • IT and Cybersecurity Experts
  • OT Managers
  • IT Managers with OT/Production Systems/Industrial Control relevance
  • IT and OT Professionals seeking to expand their OT Penetration Testing skills

Prerequisites:

To be able to follow the course content and learning pace in the workshop OT300 OT-Pentesting effectively, the following knowledge is required:

  • Basic IT and network knowledge
  • Basic knowledge in IT security

Helpful, but not mandatory are additionally:

  • Operational proficiency in handling Linux operating systems
  • Basic knowledge in network protocols
  • Basic programming knowledge Python
  • Experience in handling virtualization environments (VMware™, VirtualBox, or similar)
  • Experience regarding the execution of security assessments in IT environments

Description:

Penetration tests can significantly increase the security level, which is why they are indispensable in the IT world in times of existential threats from ransomware and similar attacks. With the increasing networking of OT environments, however, the risk of becoming a victim of a cyberattack is also rising in this environment, as numerous incidents in recent years have shown.

The training OT300 OT-Pentesting provides the required fundamentals to be able to perform penetration tests in OT environments and thus strengthen the security of own production systems/OT environments as an important component of the IT security architecture.
