Presented by Watchdog Cyber & Waterfall Security Solutions
Data from 2023 shows a continual increase in cyber attacks shutting down or even damaging manufacturing operations. The new Cyber-Informed Engineering (CIE) initiative provides a new perspective on addressing the problem, especially for the most consequential safety-critical and quality-critical manufacturing operations and systems.
You are invited to join Waterfall Security's, Rees Machtemes, lead researcher for the upcoming 2023 OT Threat Report, as he explores incident data, the new CIE perspective, and engineering-grade solutions.
In this webinar, you will learn:
· What real-world consequences are manufacturing operations suffering?
· What do we know about threat actors behind these attacks, and how can we use that knowledge?
· What is Cyber Informed Engineering and how is it relevant to manufacturers?
· What are engineering-grade options for addressing cyber risk?
