Cyber security in industrial automation
Speaker: Wilhelm Wiese, Consultant
Cyber attacks or intruders as well as unintentional or malicious security violations are threats for today’s industrial automation. Particular attention must be paid to identity management, data integrity, threat management and security governance.
While the reality is that no security can be 100% effective, this session shows how careful planning and implementation of security measures, based on a systematic risk assessment, can bring security up to a level, that is appropriate for any particular application and installation.
