Peter Jackson

When information security professionals step into Operational Technology (OT) cybersecurity, there is an endless list of ‘security’ issues that could be ‘remediated’. Many stakeholders don’t know where to start in OT/ICS/PLC.
This half-day masterclass leverages concepts and material from SANS ICS418 (ICS Security Essentials for Managers) and ICS515 (ICS Visibility, Detection, and Response). In addition, Peter will feed in insights from his work across ANZ and drivers from the five ICS cybersecurity critical controls.
Peter is expecting to tailor this session for a technical audience – those coming into ICS/OT security with technical experience/expertise in conventional information security. Practitioners will be enabled in their mission to support safe, secure, reliable OT/ICS/PLC systems with security as an enabler, with a nuanced approach to ICS/OT security and considerations for pragmatic people, process, and technology.
The tutorial will be run as a workshop with engagement and an exercise or two from the SANS material.
