ICS/SCADA Cybersecurity

Due to the potential impact of an attack on the physical safety of communities, employees, or customers, ICS/SCADA security is an even higher priority than for traditional IT systems. Cybercriminals have already developed malware threats such as Triton/TRISIS and Stuxnet that can disrupt industrial operation technology (OT).

The ICS/SCADA Cyber Security Training Course is a hands-on training that will enable you to learn the foundations of security and defend architectures from attacks. You will learn to think like a hacker in order to defend your organization from the types of attacks that are commonly conducted against industrial control systems.

You will learn powerful methods to analyze the risks of both IT and corporate networks. Once your foundation has been set, you will look at the best practices and recommendations when it comes to bridging the air gap.

You will learn a systematic process of intrusion and malware analysis. Once you have the process for analysis mastered, you will be introduced to the digital forensic process and how to respond to incidents when a breach is detected.

Who is it for?

This course is specially designed for IT professionals who are involved in managing or directing their organization’s IT infrastructure and who are responsible for establishing and maintaining information security policies, practices, and procedures. The focus of the course is on industrial control systems (ICS) and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems.

Prerequisites

• Linux operating system fundamentals, including basic command-line usage.

• Conceptual knowledge of programming or scripting.

• Solid grasp of essential networking concepts (OSI model, TCP/IP, networking devices, and transmission media).

• Understanding of basic security concepts (e.g., malware, intrusion detection systems, firewalls, and vulnerabilities).

• Familiarity with network traffic inspection tools (Wireshark, TShark, or TCPdump) is highly recommended.
