(CS)²AI Online™ Seminar: Plumbing & Cybersecurity - They're Basically the Same
Part 1: Plumbing and Cybersecurity: Basically the Same:
Even though evidence suggests the internet is not actually a series of tubes, OT cybersecurity sure seems to be a whole lot like plumbing. Cyberattacks act like water, finding their way in any crack over time. The tools are the same: filters (firewalls), backflow preventers (data diodes), leak detection. Both have conflicts between designers and practitioners, and nobody seems to care about either plumbing or cybersecurity until something has gone terribly wrong.
This session uses plumbing as a guide for those to want to better understand good OT cybersecurity practices, how to use forward thinking design to limit the impact of an attack (“if you didn’t put that pool on the roof, you wouldn’t have to worry about it leaking”), and how to explain exactly what it is you do in OT cybersecurity to people who influence your budget, staff, and quality of life. We’ve had over 2000 years of plumbing experience to learn what works. We’ve got to get OT cybersecurity right… right now.
Part 2: OT Data Diodes - What's New in One-Way
Wish you could get data out of legacy systems that don't belong on the internet? Want to get an x-ray view into air-gapped networks to detect insider threats? Data diodes may be the answer for your next industrial monitoring or cybersecurity upgrade. Learn more about what's new in the data diode category and hear about new use cases enabled by recent advancements to the technology.
