Getting Started in OT/ICS Cybersecurity - Accelerated Bootcamp
May 14 & 15, 2026
9 AM - 5 PM ET
Live (Virtual)
$50
UPDATED & ACCELERATED MATERIALS for Q2 2026 !!!
Industrial Control Systems (ICS) and Operational Technology (OT) run the world around us. Power plants, offshore oil rigs, trains, and other transportation systems, manufacturing plants – these are just a few examples of the critical infrastructure that society depends on. Each ICS/OT environment is unique and has specialized security requirements.
Protecting critical infrastructure becomes more important each day as the frequency of cyberattacks and the number of attackers continue to grow. State adversaries are no longer the only ones targeting these specialized environments. Today’s attackers include ransomware groups, hacktivists, cyber mercenaries, and more.
OT/ICS cybersecurity can seem complicated and even daunting at first, but it does not have to be. This course will help participants understand the fundamentals of how these environments operate and how to secure such specialized networks.
OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) for OT/ICS
May 23, 2026
TBA
Live (Virtual)
$25
This course helps you find your vulnerabilities before an attacker does!
Most ICS/OT cyber security (and non-cyber security) professionals aren't familiar with how OSINT can be used to help secure our OT environments from attack. Or how OSINT can be performed with little investment other than a few hours. A few hours that could be used to identify significant vulnerabilities in your environment that an attacker could exploit.
The course also acts as an introduction to the first phase of ICS/OT and IT penetration testing process where OSINT is a significant part of performing reconnaissance. Using recon to gather as much relevant information about our target organization.
And the more relevant data we have, the more successful we'll be.
