Threats are evolving at lightspeed. How do yo u build a robust and secure OT environment designed for resilience and gro wth? Program Welcome Plenary program Break Break-out session(s) Drinks Ple nary program Setting the scene: OT is transforming industries by enabling automation and real-time data sharing\, but the convergence of OT and IT i ntroduces new vulnerabilities. As threats grow more complex\, industries m ust prioritize both innovation and robust security to ensure their critica l infrastructure remains secure and resilient. What are the current trends and challenges in OT security\, and how do we build robust and secure OT environments\, designed for resilience and growth? CISO Platform board mem ber Justin Broeders sets the scene for this OT Security workshop.   Insi de information: Kirsten Dijkhuizen-Meeuwisse\, CISO of Rijkswaterstaat. \ n\nAs the lowermost region in the Rhineland\, the Netherlands is extremely sensitive to high water and longer periods of drought. For water manageme nt\, Rijkswaterstaat was created more than two centuries ago. Perhaps more than any other European country\, the Netherlands depends on frequent and timely measurements of water levels and the quality of dikes\, bridges\, roads\, and waterways. This used to be human labor\; today\, Rijkswatersta at (RWS) primarily uses an operational technology (OT) network including m any specialized sensors. This OT network needs to be properly secured. How ever\, OT security is more complicated than IT security. Operational techn ology typically involves a variety of hardware and software solutions from different vendors\, which often have a longer lifespan than IT systems. T his extended lifespan can lead to obsolescence\, making adequate security more challenging. In addition\, you can't test OT environments as well as IT environments\, because they need to operate continuously. Kirsten will share with the attendees how her team keeps the organization's OT (and IT) secure. Are you a CISO or in another cybersecurity leadership role\, inte rested in learning more about OT security? If so\, you are welcome to atte nd this workshop.  Interactive panel discussion: Together with Kisten Di jkhuizen-Meeuwisse (RWS)\, Jan Joost Bierhoff (Heineken)\, Lilian Knippenb erg (Gemeente Den Haag) and Godfried Boshuizen (CC Group) we will discuss the future of OT security. By bringing different perspectives to the table and providing the opportunity to ask questions\, we aim to engage in an i nsightful discussion on the trends and challenges of OT security.\n  Bre ak-out sessions: The challenges of connecting IT & OT As IT and OT systems become increasingly interconnected\, organizations face new security chal lenges. During this breakout session\, we will discuss how companies can c oordinate their efforts to ensure security and mitigate vulnerabilities. W e will discuss practical examples and solutions to strengthen collaboratio n between IT and OT teams. Are you prepared for NIS2? Risk management and compliance in OT security The introduction of NIS2 and other essential reg ulations pose many questions for organizations with OT.  In this session\ , we will cover those regulations and discuss how companies can align thei r security practices with enterprise risk management strategies. Practical advice on managing compliance and demonstrating compliance with these evo lving standards will also be covered. Learning from real-world cyber-attac ks: threat detection and incident response in OT environments As cyberthre ats keep evolving\, advanced detection techniques and robust incident resp onse plans must also be continuously assessed. In this session\, we will d iscuss using behavioral analytics\, anomaly detection\, and other tools to identify threats early. Additionally\, discussions will focus on creating incident response plans specifically tailored to OT systems and learning from recent\, real-world cyber incidents. Building resilience and ensuring business continuity in OT environments\nBusinesses must ensure that opera tions continue to run\, even if things go wrong. We will discuss how organ izations can build resilience and plan for a rapid and effective return to normal. In this session\, we will share experiences and best practices to gain insights.

Program

  1. The challenges of connecting IT &\; OT

    As IT and OT sys tems become increasingly interconnected\, organizations face new security challenges. During this breakout session\, we will discuss how companies c an coordinate their efforts to ensure security and mitigate vulnerabilitie s. We will discuss practical examples and solutions to strengthen collabor ation between IT and OT teams.

  2. Are you prepared for NIS2? Risk management and compliance in OT security

    The in troduction of NIS2 and other essential regulations pose many questions for organizations with OT. \; In this session\, we will cover those regul ations and discuss how companies can align their security practices with e nterprise risk management strategies. Practical advice on managing complia nce and demonstrating compliance with these evolving standards will also b e covered.

  3. Learning from real-world cyber-attacks: threat detection and incident response in OT environments

    A s cyberthreats keep evolving\, advanced detection techniques and robust in cident response plans must also be continuously assessed. In this session\ , we will discuss using behavioral analytics\, anomaly detection\, and oth er tools to identify threats early. Additionally\, discussions will focus on creating incident response plans specifically tailored to OT systems an d learning from recent\, real-world cyber incidents.

  4. B uilding resilience and ensuring business continuity in OT environments
    Businesses must ensure that operations continue to run\, even if things go wrong. We will discuss how organizations can build resilience an d plan for a rapid and effective return to normal. In this session\, we wi ll share experiences and best practices to gain insights.
