When an ICS/OT cybersecurity incident occurs, board members and CXOs are faced with particular questions, and our panel of SMEs have been there to answer them.

Join us for a CS2AI Fellow Fireside Chat on what most concerns organization leaders with ICS/OT cybersecurity incident response situations.

"Can we isolate the incident without stopping production?" — Why OT response isn't IT response, and the tradeoffs between containment and continuity.
"How long until we're operational again?" — Setting realistic recovery expectations when safety systems and physical processes are involved.
"What are we legally required to disclose, and to whom?" — Regulatory notification timelines and what happens when the incident touches critical infrastructure.
"What preventions/preparations do we have in place for this?" — What separates organizations with a tested OT incident response plan from those with a document nobody's opened.

Who should attend: CISOs, plant and operations leaders, risk and compliance executives, and anyone who would be in the room during an actual OT incident.

What does a roller coaster have in common with a refinery? More than you'd think. This talk applies bowtie analysis — a proven process safety methodology — to theme park ride control systems, showing how OT cybersecurity and functional safety can be quantified together in a single framework.

Theme park ride control systems occupy a rare and underappreciated position in the OT cybersecurity landscape: they are life-safety-critical and continuously networked. While the integrated system is unique to each installation, the components themselves are an integration of commercial IT and OT products, often managed by teams whose primary expertise is mechanical and electrical engineering, not cybersecurity. As cyber threats targeting industrial control systems grow more sophisticated, the theme park industry needs analytical frameworks that speak both languages: the language of functional safety and the language of cyber risk. Bowtie analysis does exactly that.

John will examine managing the risks in these ubiquitous systems using bowtie analysis, which is a visual risk methodology with deep roots in the process safety world, refineries, chemical plants, offshore platforms, where it has been used for decades to map threat and cause pathways to a top event, and consequence pathways from the top event to harm.

This talk is for everyone dealing with ICS/OT cybersecurity risks and their management.
