Technologies to increase the cybersecurity of industrial systems and production and generation plants

As technologies such as Ethernet and TCP/IP, remote access to systems through the Web and public telecommunication networks have become increasingly integrated into industrial control systems, SCADA supervisory and acquisition systems have become increasingly exposed to vulnerabilities typical of information systems (IT networks).

We believe in the need to increase knowledge of one's systems from a connectivity perspective and that a system designed from the beginning to be secure is easier to defend. The “Defense in Depth” model involves a multi-level functional approach to the system and is most effective when different technologies are applied and incorporated at the appropriate levels and to each part of the control system.

This seminar provides a detailed look at how an industrial control system can be properly designed to protect critical systems. Frameworks such as MITRE and standards such as IEC 62443 will be discussed and we will explore how emerging technologies such as Software Defined Network, Embedded Whitelisting, virtualization and application containerization can meet the requirements of the NIS-2 and NERC directives.
