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.
