Abstract


Securing industrial networks has never been more crucial, but it's not as simple as just patching legacy computers or installing commercial tools. Responding to cybersecurity incidents in critical infrastructure environments poses unique challenges and requires a very unusual set of skills. This lecture will cover key terminology, operational differences, and technology differences between industrial and enterprise environments. Attendees will leave with an essential understanding of the challenges in the space and the skills they will need to develop to make a difference.
