Industrial Cybersecurity - What You Don't Know Might Hurt You

Getting a clear assessment of your assets is the first step toward developing a mature OT network or control system. A well maintained asset inventory allows your organization to quickly manage risk affecting your operations availability, reliability and safety. Industrial environments often need to map assets to NIST, ITIL, ISO, COBIT or process automation standards like ANSI/ISA99-IEC-62443. You can achieve significant efficiency improvement and save time within industrial environments by automating asset management instead of following manual spreadsheet processes. Cyber security experts David Meltzer, Chief Research Officer at Tripwire, Tony Gore, CEO at Red Trident Inc., and John Powell, Senior Critical Infrastructure Engineer at Red Trident Inc., will discuss the practical 1-2-3 basics of industrial cyber security and how to get started automating asset management.
