Master Cyber-Informed Engineering to integrate security directly into the design phase. Learn to 'engineer out' risk and safeguard critical infrastructure against sophisticated threats.
The United States energy sector and critical infrastructure landscape are currently confronting sophisticated cyber threats that traditional safety engineering cannot adequately address. Cybersecurity Risks for Engineers is a comprehensive course designed to bridge the gap between engineering design and cybersecurity, moving beyond the reactive practice of adding security measures after deployment. By exploring the paradigm of Cyber-Informed Engineering (CIE), professionals will learn how to integrate security considerations directly into the conception, design, and operation of physical systems, ensuring that critical infrastructure is intrinsically hardened against intelligent adversaries.
This training emphasizes the strategic shift toward Secure by Design and Consequence-Focused Design principles. It addresses the limitations of standard risk management and outlines the National Cyber-Informed Engineering Strategy. Participants will dive deep into organizational and design principles, examining how to engineer out cyber risks, manage supply chain vulnerabilities, and foster a robust cybersecurity culture. From understanding the nuances of Zero Trust architecture to mastering specific methodologies like Consequence-driven Cyber-informed Engineering (CCE), this course provides the essential knowledge required to protect industrial control systems.
Key topics covered in this course include:
Ideal for engineers, technicians, and operational leaders, this course equips learners with the tools necessary to prevent catastrophic failures caused by cyberattacks. By integrating these practices, professionals can contribute to a resilient energy sector where security is a foundational element of every engineering decision.
