What we’re about
Welcome! This meetup dedicated to all professionals involved in Cyber Security for Automated Processes and Control Systems including security for Operating Technology (OT), Industrial Control Systems (ICS), SCADA Systems, Transportation Systems, Building Control Systems (BCS), and even emerging Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) systems. Our purpose is to connect the professionals in the Greater Johannesburg area with real interest in or responsibility for the cyber security of these systems.
Once we have enough critical mass of interest in Johannesburg, we will gather for purposes of education, information exchange, and discovery of new opportunities and, yes, perhaps a few happy hours! If you are interested in serving on a committee to help shape this meetup experience, please contact the organizers directly.

(CS)²AI Online™ Replay: Setting Up One of the World's First OT SOCs in Rail Environments
With a major role to play in the success of a global sports event such as the world cup, the stakes don't get any higher and there was a race against time to setup an effective OT SOC for a national rail company with the clear mandate to transport millions of passengers safely and securely while being under global spotlight. In this session we shall explain the journey towards building the Middle East 1st OT rail security operations centers and one of the early ones worldwide.
The session will also discuss the lessons learned and what was the value realized by such a huge undertaking.

- Network event8 attendees from 112 groups hosting(CS)²AI Fellow Fireside Chat: Building OT Capacity for IR and PentestingLink visible for attendees
Operational Technology (OT) environments face unique challenges when it comes to incident response (IR) and penetration testing. As cyber threats continue to evolve, organizations must strengthen their capacity to prepare, detect, and respond effectively to incidents—while also proactively testing defenses to uncover vulnerabilities before adversaries do.
Join us for this live and interactive seminar where leading experts will explore strategies, best practices, and lessons learned for building OT-specific capabilities in both IR and pentesting. Participants will gain actionable insights into:
- Tailoring IR processes for OT systems
- Overcoming common pitfalls in OT pentesting
- Strengthening team skills and capacity to meet today’s threat landscape
- Leveraging industry tools and frameworks to build resilience
This session will equip practitioners, defenders, and decision-makers with the knowledge needed to enhance security postures across critical infrastructure.
