Topic:
How to Improve the Current State of Operational Technology (OT) Security
Speaker: David Beidelman

Senior Security Solutions Architect, Stratascale – An SHI Company

David will be providing an overview of an Industrial Control SCADA Discovery and Assessment program that detects weaknesses and vulnerabilities within critical manufacturing and utility infrastructures. This process allows technology owners the ability to develop strategies for making their operations and assets them more secure and resilient.

We will dive into the world of Industrial Control environments and share how these critical systems have become increasingly vulnerable to cyber-attack. Organizations are dealing with new cyber risks associated with digitally connected Industrial Control Systems and are seeking solutions to secure their IoT and unmanaged devices. We will discuss why securing industrial controls has become such a challenge today and recommend strategies for implementing a top-level security evaluation approach, which is the catalyst for building a strong security program for Operational Technology.
