OT/ICS Security Foundation Training
Read Reviews

Hardware and software systems that communicate with the physical world are collectively referred to as operational technology (OT). With a desire to integrate IT skills into physical systems that either replace or enhance the current physical control components, it has developed steadily through time. The evolution of OT has been facilitated by technologies like smart buildings, smart transportation, and the Internet of Things, which have reduced costs and improved performance. This development indicates a rising need for professionals with the knowledge and skills to deal with OT.

OT/ICS Security Foundation FAQs

1. What is Operational Technology (OT)?
The term “operational technology” refers to hardware and software that detects or creates change by directly monitoring and/or controlling industrial equipment, assets, processes, and events.
2. What is the importance of operational technology?
Operational Technology (OT) is used to control tangible manufacturing systems. It includes Industrial Control Systems (ICS), the ICS management framework, and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition Systems (SCADA).
3. What are the components of operational technology?
Industrial control systems (ICS) are an essential component of operational technology. ICS consists of a multitude of devices, systems, controls, and networks used to manage a wide range of industrial processes.
4. What is the difference between OT and IT?

IT focuses on data and communication, while OT focuses on behaviors and results. Connectivity is an inherent characteristic of IT systems, whereas OT systems (especially ancient ones) are typically not connectable by nature.

5. What are types of operational technology?

Industrial control systems, building management systems, fire control systems, and physical access control mechanisms are examples of OT. Also, the hardware, software, and firmware components of a system used to directly control and monitor physical devices to detect or cause changes in physical processes are types of OT.

6. What are the different OT systems?

OT consists of industrial control systems (ICSs) such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs), distributed control systems (DCSs), and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems.

7. What are OT attacks?

While the objective of cyber attacks against IT systems is the theft or alteration of sensitive data, the objective of cyber attacks against OT systems is typically to demolish or reduce the availability of the systems.

8. What are OT protocols?

PROFINET, PROFIBUS, EtherNet/IP, and Modbus are the most common OT protocols.
