The theme of the VI Kaspersky Industrial Cybersecurity Conference was ‘Opportunities and challenges in digital transformation’. In the era of digitalization and Industry 4.0, industrial enterprises become more connected, so in 2018 we discussed the new cyber threats and how to combat them effectively.
The conference program consisted of 40 speakers, including recognized opinion leaders and international cybersecurity experts such as Marty Edwards (International Society of Automation, ISA), Edward Marszal (Kenexis), Patrick Miller (Archer International), and Miguel Garcia-Menendez (iTTi). In addition to presentations, the conference hosted an exhibition area demonstrating security solutions for industrial control systems by Kaspersky Lab, ICL System Technologies, Advantech, and USSC.
Event participants included leading experts on industrial security, as well as managers representing industrial enterprises from more than 20 countries, including the USA, China, Russia, Germany, Denmark, Italy, Spain, France, Lithuania, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Iran, Egypt and Japan. During the conference, participants had the opportunity to discuss important issues, share their expertise and learn about new approaches to securely integrating new information technology into industrial control systems.
