IIOT session on control system cyber security – Why hasn’t control system cyber security been solved yet?

Sept. 27, 2021
October 6, 2021, 2-2:55pmEastern, I will be moderating a session on control system cyber security entitled “Why haven’t we solved control system cyber security yet?”  The session was originally entitled “Protection for SCADA systems, plant control systems, PLCs, and other field control devices”. However, the title and session direction changed when it was recognized that it has been almost 25 years since Presidential Decision Directive (PDD) 63 was issued to secure the critical infrastructures and there are still issues on how to reach the right decision makers/users on control system cyber security. Panelists include Richard Ku from Trend Micro, Trish McGill from iLionx, and Derek Harp from CS2ai.
