BETHESDA, Md., May 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — SANS Institute, the global leader in cyber security training and education, has announced the latest SANS ICS Cybersecurity Field Manual Volume 3, a continuation from Volumes 1 and 2, providing Industrial Control Systems (ICS) cybersecurity professionals and ICS risk managers with more advanced insights into industrial control system specific incident response, risk-based ICS vulnerability management, ICS defender skillsets, team management, and ICS security tools and protocols to defend these systems.
The first two volumes, released in 2022 and 2023, offered a comprehensive overview of ICS security, and the third volume provides more detailed, actionable guidance in the areas of active incident response, environment and safety concerns, vulnerability management and patching, threat detection, system design, network architecture, and effective risk management. Volume 3 also shares the security skillset recipe for the best ICS security team defenders.
“The SANS ICS Cybersecurity Field Manual series is an essential tool for all Industrial Control Systems (ICS) security professionals,” said ICS expert, field manual author, and Certified SANS Instructor, Dean Parsons, “and it should find a home on the desk of every control system operator, critical infrastructure cyber defender, and ICS/OT risk manager, in all industrial control system sectors globally. Security professionals must up defenses and staff skillsets to meet the evolving threats, so the ICS Cybersecurity Field Manual should be a necessity in the ICS Incident Response jump bag.”
SANS will be hosting a webcast featuring Parsons to discuss the new edition of the manual on Wednesday, May 10, 2023, at 10:00 AM EDT. Attendees will learn about the latest manual edition and gain insights on how to best protect ICS systems.
