Proactive cyber defence for critical infrastructure
This masterclass is available to watch on-demand.
Duration: 1 hour
Location: ON24 virtual event
As critical infrastructure becomes more interconnected, the risk of cyberattacks that cause operational downtime, financial losses, and even endanger lives grows. The challenge for engineers and decision-makers is to address cybersecurity risks from the ground up to enable systems that are secure by design. Embedding cybersecurity in the early stages of automation and engineering design can dramatically reduce risks, but understanding how to do so effectively is key.
In this Accredited Technical Masterclass, our industry leaders unravel common cybersecurity pitfalls and guide you through cost-effective risk management solutions that will protect both your assets and your reputation.
Join us in this rare opportunity to:
Understand cybersecurity's impact on critical infrastructure: Discover how cybersecurity influences the safety and resilience of critical infrastructure systems in industrial environments.
- Identify practical cybersecurity measures for various sectors: Learn about common controls and countermeasures in industrial control systems, constraints in critical infrastructure environments, and how cybersecurity affects automation systems' design.
- Receive a high-level review of risk management strategies for cybersecurity: Become better equipped to discuss the benefits of implementing strong cybersecurity measures, as well as outlining the costs and the risks of inaction. This class will look at both new and retrofitted systems.
This exclusive masterclass provides a unique opportunity to learn from leading industry experts and gain valuable insights into the world of cybersecurity.
