Automation Federation Cyber Security Seminar w/ Exelon's Samara Moore @ 2015 ARC Industry Forum

Описание: Cyber Security Workshop I: Automation Federation Cyber Security Seminar w/ Exelon's Samara Moore @ 2015 ARC Industry Forum Orlando, FL.

The Automation Federation will conduct a Cyber Security Framework Seminar at the 2015 ARC Forum to educate Forum attendees on the importance of the US Cybersecurity Framework which was launched in February 2014.As a key contributor to the development of the Framework, the Automation Federation organized a series of informational seminars across the US in 2014 to raise awareness around the need to put the Framework’s guidelines into action and improve America’s defenses against industrial cyberattack.
As the umbrella organization of the International Society of Automation (ISA), the Automation Federation in 2013 worked with cyber security experts at the White House, the US Department of Homeland Security, and the National Institute of Standards and Technology to incorporate ISA’s internationally recognized industrial automation and control systems security standards (IACS) within the US Cybersecurity Framework.
ISA’s cyber security standards — known as ISA/IEC 62443 — are designed to mitigate the effects of cyber damage to industrial plant systems and networks (commonly used in transportation grids, power plants, water treatment facilities, and other vital industrial settings), thereby preventing widespread plant shutdowns, operational and equipment failure, severe economic and environment disruption, and serious risks to the public.
The Automation Federation for this Seminar will assemble representatives from the White House, NIST, and the FBI, along with Subject Matter Experts to discuss the Cybersecurity Framework and the ISA cyber security standards and resources that play a strategic role in the Framework. The Automation Federation will also bring together a panel of area manufacturer CEOs to discuss how they are addressing cyber threats in their companies.
