ISA Global Cybersecurity Alliance (ISAGCA) announces that the first Incident Command System for Industrial Control Systems (ICS4ICS) exercise at S4 will be held in Miami on April 18, 2022 at 2 p.m. Register here. ICSS4ICS is designed to improve global industrial control system cybersecurity incident management capabilities, and this exercise is designed to help industrial information technology and operational technology professionals obtain their credentials for defined ICS4ICS roles. The S4 exercise will demonstrate how ICS4ICS works and showcase how it improves cybersecurity incident response for Industrial Control Systems.
We will illustrate how an Incident Command System can be combined with cybersecurity processes and capabilities to manage cybersecurity incidents impacting Industrial Control Systems. “ISA has been a consistent momentum-builder for the improvement of OT cybersecurity," said Andre Ristaino, managing director, ISA Global Cybersecurity Alliance. "The ICS4ICS program is a significant next step that will evolve into one of the nation’s most important public private partnerships. Please join us in securing automation that affects our everyday lives." The ICS4ICS approach is funded by the ISAGCA with support from industry volunteers, FEMA and DHS CISA.
ICS4ICS guides companies, organizations, and municipalities in identifying an incident, assessing damage, addressing immediate challenges, communicating with the right agencies and stakeholders, and resuming day to day operations. Please note that the venue will not support a virtual event. We will be recording the exercise and will make the video available a week after S4.
