What You'll Learn:

As IT/OT convergence accelerates, industrial environments gain new visibility and efficiency—and a larger attack surface. Join this technical, hands-on workshop to learn practical segmentation and access-control techniques designed to protect availability and reliability in operational technology (OT) networks while improving situational awareness across critical systems.
Platform focus: Fortinet OT Security Platform (with FortiGate Next Generation Firewall).

Who should attend:

  • OT/ICS security leaders and practitioners
  • Plant/operations engineers responsible for reliability and availability
  • IT security teams supporting industrial networks and IT/OT convergence
  • Network and infrastructure engineers working in industrial environments
  • Compliance and risk professionals mapping controls to NIST, IEC 62443, and similar frameworks

What you’ll learn:

  • Traditional and modern segmentation methods for OT—and the risks of a flat network architecture.
  • Segmentation practices that support operational cybersecurity frameworks and compliance efforts (including NIST and IEC 62443).
  • How to apply and enforce access-control policies using FortiGate Next Generation Firewall.
  • How to dynamically assign role-based controls to group applications, link data, and limit access—enabling fine-grained control that adapts as device and user trust changes.
  • How to configure virtual patching with IPS, add industrial-protocol visibility and security, and implement deception techniques to strengthen OT defenses.

Reserve your Seat
