Course Description
Industrial Cybersecurity Essentials offers a comprehensive introduction to the critical aspects of securing industrial infrastructures against cyber threats. The course emphasizes the unique challenges and requirements of cybersecurity in Operational Technology (OT) environments, particularly in the context of IIoT and IACS. It explores the integration of Information Technology (IT) and OT security principles.
A key feature of this course is the practical application of industrial cybersecurity skills through various labs using a pre-built Kali Linux Virtual Machine (VM) and Cisco Packet Tracer. Learners will have the opportunity to analyze cyberattacks, assess vulnerabilities, configure an industrial firewall, implement access control and secure remote access, apply device hardening, and monitor industrial network scenarios in virtual environments.
The course design includes:
9 modules focusing on essential cybersecurity concepts tailored to industrial contexts.
Emphasis on applied skills with approximately 10 labs and 7 Cisco Packet Tracer activities to simulate real-world industrial cybersecurity scenarios.
Videos and quizzes to enhance learning experiences and knowledge retention.
A final exam that, upon successful completion, awards a Digital Badge.
Start Date: 2026 March 26
