The following can be highlighted: <\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Conducting network audits (non-invasive) to analyze and understand the current state of your traffic and the existing visibility between different network segments.<\/li>\n<li>Identifying specific vulnerabilities associated with real-time systems.<\/li>\n<li>The physical and logical segmentation of OT networks and fortification through DPI (Deep Packet Inspection) firewalls of critical areas and\/or the application of regulations such as IEC 62443\/ISA99.<\/li>\n<li>Simulating typical attacks (MitM, password cracking, injections into industrial protocols, denial of service) to observe the behavior of the network in the face of a specific security incident (as long as it is a controlled environment or laboratory).<\/li>\n<li>Using specific media and protocols (RSTP, MRP, VRRP, etc.) to design redundant network topologies.<\/li>\n<li>Incorporating non-invasive intrusion detection systems, based on behavior or signatures (depending on the criticality of the system)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>With the purpose of understanding this relationship of best practices and technologies in more detail, at Logitek we have designed a <strong>Hands-on Lab to increase the security and availability of industrial control networks that, through a combination of practical sessions, theory, and discussion workshops,<\/strong> pursues the following objectives:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Understand the main problems and vulnerabilities associated with industrial networks.<\/li>\n<li>Know and use the main tools that allow diagnosing the state of an industrial network.<\/li>\n<li>Delve into what types of architectures can be deployed to obtain more available and secure networks.<\/li>\n<li>Carry out practices with devices and technologies that allow increasing the security of industrial networks.<\/li>\n<li>Outline recommendations to optimize, fortify, and increase the security of the client&#8217;s industrial control networks.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If you want to know in more detail the scope of these On-Demand practical sessions that we carry out in your own facilities, access <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ciberseguridadlogitek.com\/hands-on-lab\/\"><strong>here.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Logitek has designed a Hands-on Lab to increase the security and availability of industrial control networks through a combination of practical sessions, theory, and discussion workshops.
