Course Information
About This Course:
Industrial Control Systems (ICS) and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems run power grids, water treatment plants, manufacturing lines, and pipelines. They’re high-value targets, and securing them takes more than standard IT security. Legacy hardware, specialized protocols, and the demand for constant uptime create challenges that traditional security approaches weren’t designed for.
Course Objectives:
-
Compare IT and ICS/SCADA security models and explain how their priorities differ
-
Perform risk assessments and apply risk management practices in ICS/SCADA environments
-
Develop security policies suited to industrial control systems
-
Explain TCP/IP protocol architecture and the protocols unique to ICS/SCADA networks
-
Apply the hacking methodology, including footprinting, scanning, enumeration, and exploitation, to understand how attackers target ICS/SCADA systems
-
Analyze real-world ICS/SCADA attacks and attack methodologies
-
Identify ICS/SCADA vulnerabilities and address the challenges of vulnerability management in industrial environments
-
Understand the cybersecurity standards and regulations that apply to ICS/SCADA systems
-
Secure ICS-specific protocols and harden industrial networks
-
Analyze ICS malware and deploy network monitoring and intrusion detection for ICS/SCADA environments
-
Prepare for the EC-Council ICS/SCADA Cybersecurity exam
Audience:
-
IT professionals who manage or direct their organization’s IT infrastructure
-
Security professionals responsible for information security policies, practices, and procedures
-
ICS/SCADA engineers, operators, and administrators
-
Operational technology (OT) and plant network engineers
-
Security consultants who perform assessments of ICS/SCADA environments
-
Network security administrators and incident responders in critical infrastructure sectors such as energy, utilities, oil and gas, water, and manufacturing
Prerequisites:
-
Linux operating system fundamentals, including basic command-line usage
-
Conceptual knowledge of programming or scripting
-
A solid understanding of networking concepts, including the OSI model, TCP/IP, networking devices, and transmission media
-
An understanding of basic security concepts such as malware, intrusion detection systems, firewalls, and vulnerabilities
