Scada Engineer: Scada Architecture & Cybersecurity Best Practices

This technical course equips participants with comprehensive knowledge of SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) systems, focusing on architecture design, system integration, operations, and cybersecurity best practices. It covers both foundational and advanced topics to ensure the secure and efficient deployment and management of SCADA systems across industrial environments.

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

– Understand SCADA system components, architecture, communication protocols, and integration principles.
– Design and optimize SCADA systems to meet operational, monitoring, and control requirements.
– Identify cybersecurity vulnerabilities within SCADA environments and apply defense mechanisms.
– Implement SCADA security policies in compliance with industry standards and regulations.
– Troubleshoot and maintain SCADA systems to ensure operational reliability and resilience against cyber threats.

1- Fundamentals of SCADA Systems: Components, Architecture, and Protocols
2- Designing, Integrating, and Optimizing SCADA Architectures
3- Identifying SCADA Cybersecurity Threats and Vulnerabilities
