What We're Looking For

We're seeking presentations that not only inform but also inspire and challenge the audience. The ICS Summit has two decades of prioritizing selected talks that are for practitioners, with a goal of providing actionable information that attendees can pursue immediately when they return to work. Here are some hot topics that attendees are eager to explore:

Deconstructing Real-World Attacks: Show how an attack against an ICS environment unfolds and the defensive tactics that work.

Live Demonstrations: Bring the thrill of cybersecurity to life with demonstrations that highlight critical defense mechanisms.

Case Studies: Showcase your expertise in applying and leveraging the SANS ICS 5 Critical Controls.

Lessons Learned: Share your successes (and failures) in securing OT/ICS networks, providing valuable lessons for the community.

Future Threats & Opportunities: Offer insights into emerging threats and the investments needed to mitigate them.

Regulation & Resilience: Discuss how regulation and governance can either strengthen or hinder ICS security, and what resilience looks like in industrial operations.

Submission Deadline: Monday, February 3, 5pm ET
