Protecting Information and System Integrity in Industrial Control System Environments

Manufacturing organizations rely on industrial control systems (ICS) to monitor and control their machinery, production lines, and other physical processes that produce goods. Operational Technology (OT) encompasses a broad range of programmable systems or devices that interact with the physical environment (or manage devices that interact with the physical environment). These systems/devices detect or cause a direct change through the monitoring and/or control of devices, processes, and events. This course provides guidance on how to improve the security of Operational Technology (OT) systems while addressing their unique performance, reliability, and safety requirements.
