Topic: Creating Realistic Cyber Security Policies for Industrial Control Systems

Crafting a cyber security strategy that is simple enough to actually be implemented, yet nuanced enough to be effective is no easy task. By reconciling IT security solutions’ prioritization of confidentiality against ICS’s prioritization of availability, this session will present the principles that a successful cyber security policy can be built around. This requires an understanding of the threats ICS will face in terms of probability, not possibility, which includes an explanation of how current ICS strategies fail. Policy foundations will then be presented that allow proven IT security strategies to be successfully applied to ICS legacy networks.
