Cyber risk in industrial environments carries consequences far beyond data loss—it can disrupt essential services, damage equipment, impact safety, and affect entire communities. In the utilities sector, this risk is operational, immediate, and escalating. Water treatment plants, electric grids, and energy distribution networks are now routine targets for adversaries seeking to exploit weaknesses in industrial control systems with traditional malware, ICS/OT tailored malware and living off the land techniques where no malware is needed.
The Winter Cyber Solutions Fest: Utilities and Critical Infrastructure Forum is a virtual event built specifically for utility asset owners, technology vendors, operators' staff, engineers, and cybersecurity professionals responsible for defending the ICS/OT systems that make, move, and power our world. This forum delivers focused insight into today’s evolving industrial threat landscape, emerging defense strategies, and real-world technology solutions to build resilient ICS/OT cybersecurity programs beyond just the traditional IT security approaches—without unnecessary complexity or cost.
