In this webinar from February 2019, Sharon Rosenman, Cyberbit’s VP of Marketing was joined by Alon Nachmany, Cyberbit ICS Security Expert, and Cecil Pineda, former CISO of DFW Airport and CISO/Managing Director of Cyber Watch Systems. This webinar took participants through an overview of OT visibility and challenges, presented a CISO Case Study on managing a converged IT/OT network, provided approaches to securing IT/OT environments, presented a case study on smart building security project, and wrapped up with a Q&A session.

Nachmany discussed visibility and the OT security challenge. He mentioned several examples of major attacks on ICS / OT systems from 2013-2018.

Pineda discussed his prior experience working in cyber security at DFW airport and laid out the numerous systems at risk.

“Think of the airport cyber security, not just the cybersecurity side, the IT and the OT side; it’s almost like an orchestra, everything has to be in synch with each other,” Pineda said. Pineda continued his presentation by presenting the technical challenges of multiple IT, OT and IoT Systems in a typical airport, and how he and his team addressed those challenges.

Next, Rosenman and Nachmany covered Securing the Converged IT/OT Environment. Nachmany walked through several key steps, which included: Enhancing IT Security, revisiting network architecture, obtaining full OT visibility, creating a baseline for OT anomaly, and consolidating OT and IT incident management with SOA.

The webinar concluded with a Q&A session with all three speakers.
