In an era where digital connectivity reaches deep into our critical infrastructure, the security of Industrial Control Systems (ICS) has never been more crucial. As once-isolated systems become increasingly interconnected, they face sophisticated cyber threats that could disrupt essential services, compromise public safety, and impact national security.
This comprehensive guide takes you on a journey through the complex landscape of ICS security, from the fundamentals of industrial systems to cutting-edge protection strategies. Drawing on real-world case studies—including high-profile incidents like Colonial Pipeline and Triton—Eric Peterson provides an authoritative roadmap for securing the systems that power our modern world.
Inside these pages, you’ll discover:
- Practical approaches to implementing defense-in-depth strategies
- How artificial intelligence is transforming threat detection and response
- Proven methods for developing robust security programs that balance protection with operational requirements
- Strategies for navigating complex regulatory requirements across multiple jurisdictions
- Techniques for building a security-conscious culture through effective training and awareness
Whether you’re a cybersecurity professional seeking specialized knowledge, an operations leader responsible for critical infrastructure, or an executive making strategic security decisions, this book delivers actionable insights to help you protect your organization against evolving cyber threats.
The digital transformation of industrial systems brings unprecedented opportunities—and equally unprecedented risks. Are you prepared to defend the critical infrastructure that powers our world?
