Recording from the ISA Twin Cities September 2024 Tech Talk.
The ISA Twin Cities is pleased to announce a Tech Talk session with Tom Smertneck Owner Energy Aspects LLC & CIE Contributor.
Cyber-Informed Engineering (CIE) is an emerging method to integrate cybersecurity considerations into the conception, design, development, and operation of any physical system, energy or otherwise, to mitigate or even eliminate avenues for cyber-enabled attacks. CIE concepts use design decisions and engineering controls to prioritize defense against the worst possible consequences of cyberattacks facing critical infrastructure systems and asset owners. By extending traditional engineering education to include defense against cybersecurity vulnerabilities, CIE expands and strengthens the workforce that can protect critical infrastructure from cyberattacks to include engineers. It offers these professionals the opportunity to “engineer out” cyber risks from the earliest possible phase of design, the optimal time to introduce both low-cost and effective cybersecurity approaches.
