Course Details

This course offers a thorough theoretical understanding of IEC 62443 standards, focusing on requirements from the standards rather than hands-on practical experience. For practical, hands-on training, consider enrolling in our “OT/IACS-SOC/SIEM Design and Implementation in Azure” course.

ICS systems include SCADA, DCS, PLC, and other proprietary systems. Effective cybersecurity design requires knowledge of OT-related applications and IT controls suitable for these environments.
