ICS/SCADA Cybersecurity Certification Course Overview
Industrial Control Systems (ICS) and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems are critical components of industrial operations, overseeing energy, manufacturing, and utilities processes. Due to their essential role in infrastructure, these systems are direct targets for cyber-attacks. Ensuring the cybersecurity of ICS/SCADA systems is vital for maintaining operational integrity, safety, and national security.
Understanding ICS/SCADA cybersecurity is crucial for Network Engineers, Cybersecurity Specialists, and IT Managers responsible for securing industrial networks. This ICS/SCADA Cybersecurity Certification helps these professionals protect critical infrastructure from cyber threats, mitigate risks, and ensure compliance with industry regulations. As cyber threats evolve, having specialised knowledge in this area becomes indispensable for safeguarding industrial environments.
The Knowledge Academy’s 3-day ICS/SCADA Certification Training provides delegates with an understanding of the unique cybersecurity challenges faced by industrial control systems. Participants will learn about threat landscapes, vulnerability assessment, and best practices for securing ICS/SCADA environments. This ICS/SCADA Cybersecurity Certification combines theoretical knowledge with practical exercises to ensure that delegates can apply cybersecurity measures effectively in their organisations.
