By: ICS-ISAC Today, however, we find ourselves surrounded by the components necessary to finally address the situation. From technical to political tools, from regulatory to corporate motivations, at local, state, national and international levels the pieces of the puzzle have evolved to the point where they can be assembled into the required solution. Join us Wednesday Aug 21st from 1-2:30pm ET for a discussion on the state of maturity of the constituent components of shared situational awareness. Facilitated by ICS-ISAC Chair Chris Blask this panel of leading subject matter experts -- including Graham Speake (Yokogawa) plus Tim Conway & Michael Assante (SANS) -- will delve into the pressures which have built over many years and how these culminate in the present efforts to secure our shared infrastructure. Designed to benefit both the technical & non-technical attendee the ICS-ISAC Public Briefing series takes a no-nonsense approach to addressing issues that cut across industry, sector, and job function. So whether you are hands-on ICS, administrator, or C-level decision-maker you will find valuable information that you can take and implement to further secure your industrial control systems.
