July 1st Air Force Cyber College Control System Cyber Security Seminar

June 22, 2021
July 1, 2021 from 1:00-2:00PM CDT, I will be presenting "Beyond Ransomware – Cyber Security is More than IT” to the US Air Force Cyber College. With the spate of public disclosures about ransomware incidents, why are the Chinese transformer case, SolarWinds impacts on control systems, and other actual control system incidents not being discussed?  It has been evident with the myriad discussions, articles, webinars, and government actions on cyber security that there is still a lack of understanding of what makes control system cyber security different than IT/OT network security. Unfortunately, our nation-state adversaries understand and are exploiting these differences. The presentation will be followed by a question-and-answer session.

The following is the invitation from the US Air Force Cyber College:
