2019 ICS Cyber Security Conference | USA

With the rise of the IIoT and cloud platforms interacting with ICS equipment, OT-IT separation is no longer a valid form of security. Internet and cloud connectivity are basic staples, if not requirements in the modern industrial enterprise. Endpoints are spread out across machines, networks, user devices, organizations (for example, cloud vendors, third-party asset owners, and contract manufacturers). Data is being pushed out of the entire organization from IT systems all the way down to devices attached to process equipment. This paradigm shift calls for a new approach – one that won’t fit in the previous layered, separated model. This session will discuss cybersecurity methods and technologies to build a new, secure framework outside and above the traditional models of ICS data communications, to incorporate new platforms and account for the increasing connectivity of systems and devices in today's industrial enterprises.
