DOE, Idaho National Labs, and Cyber-Informed Engineering | S1 E8 Simply ICS Cyber

This episode concludes season one of Simply ICS Cyber, featuring discussions on the role of Idaho National Laboratory in cybersecurity and industrial control systems. The conversation highlights the importance of Cyberinformed Engineering (CIE) in enhancing infrastructure resilience and safety. #IdahoNationalLab #CyberinformedEngineering

Keypoints :

  • The Idaho National Laboratory is known for its expertise in operational technology, cybersecurity, and nuclear energy.
  • Different national labs have specialized focuses, e.g., Sandia with defense systems, Oak Ridge with science research.
  • Cyberinformed Engineering (CIE) aims to integrate engineering principles into cybersecurity for industrial control systems.
  • CIE emphasizes designing protections to prevent physical consequences, such as explosions or system failures, from cyber attacks.
  • Application of CIE is most effective in greenfield projects, but it can also be adapted for brownfield environments.
  • There are significant cultural and mindset obstacles for adopting CIE, including the need for interdisciplinary collaboration.
  • Tools and resources, like implementation guides and microgrid analysis, support organizations in applying CIE practices.
