I wish I had known about this micro-summit a bit earlier. IIoT - OT integration is one of the "frontier" areas of technology at the moment (and frontiers are often subject to land-grabs). Two separate sets of incumbent suppliers; the IT and Networking vendors on one side and the Industrial Automation vendors on the other. And sitting on the side-lines, licking their lips are the hackers, as they contemplate the ever-growing attack surface of industrial networks. Industrial companies know they have to connect and digitise their assets to compete. But how to do it securely and efficiently? Providing the roadmap through this unfamiliar territory at Informa Tech's huge #blackhat Black Hat event is Omdia (& Informa Tech's) Hollie Hennessy and a select group of others (not many people understand this environment!) I bet this will be a fantastic set of sessions.
Tomorrow is the day! I’ve had a blast working with Dr. Marina Krotofil to put together the first ever ICS Micro Summit at Black Hat USA 2024. We have an amazing lineup of speakers Emma Stewart, Piotr Ciepiela, and a panel Prof. Thomas Brandstetter, Noam Moshe and Cassie Crossley led by Daniel Cuthbert You can find the agenda here: https://lnkd.in/ePcX8HgW I’ll be around, chairing the sessions. Please come and say hi !
