At S4x18 we had ten OT security 101 sessions in a training track called the OnRamp. Those sessions are available online in a playlist on the S4 Events YouTube channel. If you are a video learner, I still believe they are the best way to get up to speed quickly on OT security. My two favorite are Marty Edwards’ Know Your ICS that gives you the basics on control loops, different types of ICS, etc., and Patrick Miller’s Risk Management & Executive Communications. These sessions are timeless, at least to date. Some new topics have arisen since 2018.
Tuesday morning on Stage 3 we will add five more sessions to the OnRamp training library. All S4x25 attendees can watch all or selected topics. There is no special training ticket required. The sessions are:
- Supply Chain with Cassie Crossley
- Cyber Informed Engineering with Andrew Ohrt
- IT’s Impact On OT with Justin Pascale
- Vulnerability Management: What To Patch When with Logan Carpenter
- AI In OT & ICS Security with Jeffrey Macre
The sessions assume you know what ICS is and have gone through the OnRamp, equivalent training, or life experience. More detailed descriptions are available in the agenda.
