OTSEC.World: Fortifying Industrial & Operational Technology
Operational Technology (OT) is the foundation of modern economies — powering energy grids, manufacturing lines, transportation networks, and healthcare infrastructure. As adversaries increasingly target ICS and SCADA systems, enterprises must move beyond theory to actionable defense strategies. OTSEC.World brings together leaders, practitioners, and regulators to address the unique challenges of OT security. Through CyberEd.io Enterprise & Custom Editions, your teams gain direct access to this critical global summit.
OT environments differ fundamentally from IT.
Systems designed decades ago with uptime as the priority now face modern threats that can disrupt physical operations, threaten safety, and generate regulatory exposure.
Traditional IT security strategies often fail in OT contexts, where patching isn’t always possible and downtime isn’t acceptable.
OTSEC.World bridges this gap. It equips CIOs, CISOs, and OT architects with the tools to build resilience into industrial systems, ensure compliance with evolving regulations, and prepare cross-functional teams for incidents that could impact both operations and reputation. For enterprises, this event is more than a knowledge exchange — it’s a safeguard for business continuity.
OTSEC.World attracts thought leaders and practitioners shaping the OT security landscape.
Key tracks cover everything from ICS threat modeling and incident response to AI-powered anomaly detection, regulatory alignment with ISA/IEC standards, and the strategic convergence of IT and OT security. Sessions include both executive-level panels and hands-on technical labs, ensuring relevance for every layer of the enterprise. Highlights from recent editions include:
David Ruzicka (Clarios)
Building an OT security culture across global industrial operations.
Cara Walls (BlueScope)
Balancing efficiency and risk in large-scale manufacturing environments.
Michael Robb (Bayer)
Developing ICS cybersecurity programs for life sciences.
John Ballentine (Port Authority NY/NJ)
