In-depth ICS cybersecurity training, hands-on labs, and immersion into real-word ICS scenarios taught by Dragos’ team of ICS cybersecurity experts.

HANOVER, Md., Jan. 17, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Industrial control systems (ICS) cybersecurity company Dragos, Inc. announced today the addition of a new, 5-day ICS cybersecurity course: “Assessing, Monitoring, and Hunting ICS Threats.” The course is hosted at Dragos’ state-of-the-art training center in Hanover, Maryland and is aimed to help information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) security professionals increase their industrial cybersecurity best practices expertise, expand their knowledge of industrial environments, and more effectively secure their environments. The course also leverages the team’s software technology, the Dragos Platform, to better enable customers and introduce them to complex environments and attacks outside of those they might face at their own organizations.

“Assessing, Monitoring, and Hunting ICS Threats” offers students:

• 5 days of in-depth training on ICS basics, best practices, environment assessments, threat hunting, and industrial network monitoring
• Access to ICS cyber ranges and individual training stations equipped with control system kits
• Immersion into real-world ICS scenarios through various hands-on labs and exercises
• Instruction from Dragos’ team of ICS experts and practitioners who have boots-on-the-ground experience securing industrial control systems and surrounding infrastructure

“The industrial community faces shortages of both the talent and technology required to keep pace with threats and the methods they use,” said Robert M. Lee, Dragos CEO and Founder. “Dragos training classes are a key element of Dragos’ response to these challenges and just one of the ways we transfer our team members’ knowledge and experience as ICS defenders back into the community.”

The next class is scheduled for February 26, 2018. More details about the course can be found at www.dragos.com/training/.  Contact info@dragos.com for more information.
