Discussion by consortium members on the CIISAp apprenticeship program that links rigorous academic classes and training with real-world job rotations at leading industrial companies to help students identify and prevent cyber vulnerabilities and attacks on industrial control systems and OT, IT networks, and platforms run on the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).

Discussion by CIISAp consortium members on the design and launch of the apprenticeship program linking academic classes and educational training with real-world job rotations at leading industrial companies to identify and prevent cyber vulnerabilities and attacks on ICS/OT, IT networks, and industrial IoT.

This session explains why ICS/OT directed ransomware is unlikely and helps attendees understand IT/OT-related cyber incidents and select cost-effective cyber defense solutions to protect facility operating safety, reliability, and performance (SRP).
