Course Overview
The ICS/SCADA Cybersecurity Course equips cybersecurity professionals, engineers, and operational teams with the knowledge needed to secure industrial control systems (ICS) and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) networks from cyber threats. Training begins with foundational architecture and threat landscape coverage and progresses to defensive strategies, risk assessment, protocol security, vulnerability management, intrusion detection and prevention, and compliance with standards such as IEC 62443, NERC CIP, and ISO 27001. Participants learn how attackers target industrial environments and how to defend critical systems without impairing operational continuity.
Course Details
