IDC Technology is hosting a conference and two half-day workshops in Edmonton later this month with workshops presented by both Paul Gruhn on Safety system and John Cusimano on "Assessing the Security of Industrial Control Systems Using Threat Modeling" Tuesday November 27. This is followed by a 2 day conference that has 17 different presentations, including two by myself but also a veritable "who's who of the safety industry in Western Canada including Ken Bingham from ACM Automation.

My second presentation will talk about the ISA84 WG8 work on Wireless for Safety applications team that is being led by Greg LaFramboise of Chevron ETC in California.
