What you'll learn
This course will lay the foundations to understanding Operational Technology (OT) and the challenges of securing it. In this course, Fundamentals of OT Security, you’ll develop a foundational understanding of OT infrastructure and the inherent security risks of increasingly interconnected industrial infrastructure. First, you’ll explore OT terminology, and consider a case study that illustrates how damaging a cyber attack against OT can be. Next, you’ll discover how OT assets are networked and combined to create digital machines that can interact with the physical world. Finally, you’ll learn about the vulnerabilities associated with OT, including the attack surface and potential impacts of cyber attacks against OT. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge to diver deeper into OT and how to secure it.
