Industrial Automation is evolving and nowadays most companies use commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) computer systems, networks, and cloud applications to optimize production, reduce costs, improve uptime, and improve Process Safety. This is called the IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) or Industry 4.0 and has been embraced by many because of its advantages.
Unfortunately, Industry 4.0 also creates a huge disadvantage: the OT-Cybersecurity threat. Malware, ransomware, and other hacking software, have been developed to attack systems, databases, and other private and governmental networks to steal information, corrupt information, hurt networks or create physical destruction. The number of cyber threats and thereby the likelihood of being a victim is growing exponentially.
This awareness training course introduces participants to the OT-Cybersecurity threat. The 2-hour course is split into two parts, first, the background and risks are explained. In the second part, the participants are shown the different approaches an organization can take to protect itself, with a focus on the correct working structure.
After the course, you maintain 1-year unlimited access to the online course material, including any new course material. This allows you to perform modules again should you need to refresh your knowledge.
