Cyber Security for Oil & Gas: Advanced

Tier 2

Operational Overview

Cyber Security for Oil & Gas introduced the basics. This course goes further, into the moment a business decision and a physical shutdown become the same decision, and the malware built specifically to target the systems designed to keep people safe.

This course's real incident shows something genuinely counterintuitive: a company shutting down thousands of miles of live pipeline because of a problem in its billing system, not its pipeline controls. You will finish this course understanding exactly why that decision made sense, and how to build the same clarity into your own organisation's response before you ever need it.

You will also cover the malware built specifically to target the last line of defence in a process plant, and what it actually takes to keep that line uncompromised.
