TWCERT CC Participates in the 4SICS-ICS SCADA Cyber Security Conference in Stockholm, Sweden

The conference was held by the Omnisiens AB with the assistance from FIRST and CERTs on October 20-22, 2015 at the Nalen Conference Center in Stockholm, Sweden. The participated companies and institutions include the Check point software technologies LTD., TrendMicro, Lofty Perch, Energinet from Denmark, Egyptian CERT, and CERT-EU. The chair of the conference was Anne-Marie Eklund Lowinder, who is a famous Internet and cyber security professional from Sweden as well as a founder of the Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC). She was also awarded as an innovator and reformer of the Internet Hall of Fame. The agenda was comprised by a one-day machine operation and 14 lectures divided in two days. Around 200 people participated in the conference; most of them were from Europe and America.

In the past, the damage from hackers’attacks to the industrial control system was not emphasized because of physical isolation. However, with the evolution of attacking skills and the development of mobile devices, hackers’attacks have surpassed the past defensive measures, therefore the spirit of the conference was to make good use of long-developed cyber security skills in the field of industrial control engineering.
