SANS ICS Summit Solutions Track 2025

Attackers are increasingly targeting critical infrastructure — including power grids, water systems, heavy manufacturing, and oil and gas — with a deep and sophisticated knowledge of ICS components, industrial protocols, and engineering processes. Employing advanced techniques like Living Off The Land (LOTL) strategies, they repurpose legitimate ICS software for malicious purposes. These tactics, when combined with ransomware and ICS-specific attacks, significantly escalate the risks to both human lives and essential infrastructure, especially in times of warfare.To counter these threats, ICS/OT environments need specialized technology solutions and highly trained ICS defenders. The ICS Active Cyber Defense model emphasizes “skilled human analysts capable of monitoring and responding to adversaries within the ICS/OT network.” Defending against LOTL and similar threats demands cybersecurity teams with a blend of specific expertise in control systems, IT security knowledge and a prioritization of safety.Is your ICS/OT cybersecurity program equipped with the appropriate technology and expertise? The ICS Summit Solutions Track 2025 will present cutting-edge solutions, live demonstrations, and strategies for tackling today’s ICS security challenges. Presentations and panels will align with industry frameworks, such as the SANS ICS Cybersecurity Critical Controls, demonstrating how expertly trained ICS defenders, armed with ICS-specific solutions, can safeguard the vital infrastructure we all depend on.
