How to Embed 30 Years of Security Funding into Capital Budgets [The Industrial Security Podcast]

Asset inventory tools have become almost ubiquitous as main offerings or add-ons to OT security solutions. In this episode, Brian Derrico of Trident Cyber Partners walks us through what it's like to use these tools - different kinds of tools in different environments.

Industrial incidents can be cyber attacks, or equipment failures, or physical equipment leaking product because of metal fatigue or incorrect welds. OT incident responders need to know a lot. Doug Leece of Enbridge explores what is OT incident response and what you look for recruiting people into that role.

For safety-critical operations or for critical national infrastructures, would you rather base your system on a code that people have tested as best they can, or would you rather base your system on a platform that has been proven correct? Daly Brown and Nick Foubert of Metropolitan Technologies look at a new approach to designing OT systems.

Most of us struggle to get funding for industrial cybersecurity. Ian Fleming of Deloitte explains how - because cybersecurity is essential to sustaining the value of industrial assets - how we can embed up to 20 or 30 years of cybersecurity budget into capital plans, rather than fight for budget every year.

Nation state threats are often portrayed as the "irresistible forces" of cyber threats, with little qualification. Joseph Price of Deloitte joins us to dig deeper - what are nation states capable of, what are they up to, and how should we interpret the information that is available to the public?

Security automation needs a machine-readable vulnerability database. Carmit Yadin of Device Total joins us to look at limitations of the widely-used National Vulnerability Database (NVD), and explore a new "data science" alternative.

Tomomi Aoyama translated the book Countering Cyber Sabotage - Consequence-Driven, Cyber-Informed Engineering - to Japanese. Tomomi recalls the effort of translating CCE to Japanese and looks forward to applying CCE and OT security principles to industrial cloud systems at Cognite.

Compromise a cloud service and tens thousands of vehicles can be affected at once. Matt MacKinnon of Upstream Security walks us through the world of cloud security for connected vehicles, transport trucks, tractors, and other "stuff that moves."

The bad guys keep getting better at what they do, and so must we defenders. Gary Southwell of Aria Cyber joins us to look at using AI to get ahead of constantly-changing malware.

The CIS Top 18 is widely used in IT, and Jack Bliss of 1898 & Co. has adapted that list for OT/industrial, adding a lot of industrial context and lists of related OT-centric tools and technology.
