OT Cybersecurity Conference.

The Ireland Section of the International Society of Automation is holding the second OT Cybersecurity Conference in Mullingar* in November 2024. It is being organised in partnership with Cyber Ireland. Entitled Ensuring Continuous Compliance: Navigating NIS2 for Secure and Resilient OT Systems, it will concentrate on several current aspects including legal directives. A call for papers was released recently.

Delegates to the conference will be updated on the NIS2 Directive, which becomes law on 17th October 2024. NIS2 is the EU-wide legislation on cybersecurity. It provides legal measures to boost the overall level of cybersecurity in the EU, by modernising the existing legal framework to keep up with increased digitisation and an evolving cybersecurity threat landscape. It specifies cybersecurity requirements that need to be implemented by EU companies that are considered to be critical infrastructure.

They will also learn about the ISA/IEC 62443 OT Cybersecurity Standard & application to Control & Automation and how technology advances may effect industry. Practical case studies will be given of actual OT cybersecurity projects.

It will also be an opportunity to meet manufacturers, integrators and end users using OT cybersecurity.
