About us
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 Paris area with real interest in or responsibility for the cyber security of these systems.
Once we have enough critical mass of interest in Paris, 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.

The backend of responding to a cybersecurity incident in OT is recovery, and if the incident is significant, it will spur a larger Disaster Recovery (DR) effort. Currently most Incident Response (IR) focus is around detection, containment, and eradication. However, with OT systems, significant recovery plans often lack detail given a response to any actual or perceived cybersecurity threat that disrupts the environment.
The events of WannaCry are a stark reminder of the importance of having a DR plan where near total environment disruption occurred. To handle such large-scale human made disasters, a DR plan should specify systematic reconstitution activities contingent on different impact scenarios and provide a pathway for rapid recovery.
This talk will introduce a vendor-agnostic framework that aims to parallel well-defined practices in process safety engineering (such as the commonly used four steps of process shutdown, ESD 0 - 3) and apply them to disaster recovery, considering cyber events that trigger a process loss event. Instead of focusing on data and technical recovery alone, commonly the scope of DR plans, the ICS/OT disaster recovery framework will view restoration considering process and control & automation system dependencies and location, following a methodology of 4 levels of automation system compromise. Next, the framework considers different loss scenarios for the individual asset under consideration and develops recovery strategies for the respective functional components of the environment. In turn this framework provides a stepwise functional method to resume operations of automation and process control systems and ensures recovery details are measured and operationalized.Register now for access to this replay of one of our past sessions: https://events.zoom.us/ev/AsR-B9SnauFCbBx1wjQe5uMXcQoZ73UsXUC1gZwdmg4_i5GflBE7~AswkF4l91_W4qWyTWacPXmrKTbRm9Zru-PXcLjsYQ9cbEF_mCR5_enNeoJkD_GV9Ve8WeyLMsBo25pSV4Nqct3k_vg
