As the internet is exponentially permeating daily life and work, in parallel, different events of cyberattacks have been recorded. There is a huge challenge nowadays on how to deal with them in the industrial sectors, especially in those with an associated high risk on safety, environment or significant socio-economic impact (i.e. strategic energetic facilities, etc.). This webinar has the primary objective to evaluate the methodologies available in the market to face new risks derived from the overlap of Information Technology (IT) and Operation Technology (OT). Secondary objective is to offer a flawless alternative to the existing cybersecurity analytical methods.
