A perfect security storm is brewing with the shortage of security professionals and the additional vulnerabilities with IoT enabled infrastructures. “Securing Industrial IoT Networks with Cisco Technologies” (ISECIN) aims to narrow this talent gap and upskill security professionals to secure and defend critical IoT enabled infrastructures such as utilities, transportation and smart cities.

This course provides an overview of the IoT enabled industrial verticals (manufacturing, energy, O&G, utilities, process control), architectures, and IIoT security requirements, frameworks, and regulations. Security protocols, vulnerabilities, and the process of securing against the vulnerabilities are examined in depth and practiced in the hands-on lab environment.

It is highly recommended to have the following skills and knowledge before attending this course:

IP Networking Basics: !, ICND1 equivalent
OT Networking Basics: ICINS, !CI-IMINS or !CI-IMINS2
Network Security Basics: IINS or CCNA Security equivalent

Upon completion of this course, you will be able to:

Understand the convergent enterprise and industrial IoT architecture, components and applications
Contrast enterprise IT vs. industrial OT security
Define layered security requirements from the network edge to the core, and from access to applications layer
Protect endpoints, communications as well as data at rest and in motion
Compliance to standards and regulations and auditing
Understand protocols, applications and IPv6 for IIoT
Identify vulnerabilities and threat
Familiarize with common implementation issues
Assess, monitor and detect vulnerabilities
Walk through IIoT attacks
Adopt best practices in design principles and process for securing and segmenting IIoT networks
Application of the converged security model for the broader industry: manufacturing, utilities, transportation, O&G
Secure and monitor/detect the IIoT framework with next generation security products and tools
