NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Indegy, the leading industrial cyber security company, today announced it has been invited to participate in the Industrial Control Systems (ICS) Sandbox at the upcoming RSA Conference. Indegy will present a session on the ICS Sandbox stage, lead a Birds of a Feather discussion, and give live demonstrations of the Indegy platform using a simulated ICS attack.
Barak Perelman, CEO and Mille Gandelsman, CTO will co-present a session entitled, “Anatomy of Industrial Cyber Attacks” in the ICS Sandbox that will explain the differences and complexities involved in protecting industrial control networks, and provide best practices for protecting ICS systems from external threats, malicious insiders and human error.
As part of the ICS Sandbox, Barak and Mille will provide live demonstrations of Indegy’s Industrial Cyber Security Platform, showing how it can be used to discover and mitigate threats before damage occurs. The ICS Sandbox at RSA Conference gives attendees the chance to gain practical advice and hands-on, interactive experience on ways to manage threats to smart cities, electric grids and industrial processing plants, including ICS/SCADA systems found in every industry and critical infrastructure. The ICS Sandbox will be located in the Marriott Marquis Golden Gate Ballrooms, adjacent to the Early Stage Expo, on February 15th and 16th.
In addition, Mille Gandelsman will lead a Birds of a Feather discussion entitled, “Best Practices: Securing Industrial Networks” on Wed., Feb. 15 at 7:00AM, that will focus on ICS security challenges and best practices for identifying and addressing cyber threats.
Anatomy of Industrial Cyber Attacks (ICS Sandbox)
WHO:
Barak Perelman is the CEO of industrial cyber security
company Indegy. Prior to Indegy he led several multi-million dollar
cyber security projects at the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). He is a
graduate of the elite Talpiot military academy and has over 15 years of
hands-on experience in cybersecurity and protection of critical
infrastructures.
Mille Gandelsman, CTO of Indegy, has led engineering efforts for Stratoscale and spent several years managing cybersecurity research for Israel’s elite intelligence corps. Gandelsman is an IDF Talpiot graduate and has over 15 years of hands-on experience in ICS and cybersecurity.
WHAT:
Inherently different from IT networks, the operational
environment in industrial networks poses unique challenges which make it
easy to attack, but difficult to secure. In his hands-on session Barak
Perelman and Mille Gandelsman will explain the complexities involved in
protecting ICS networks and provide a live demonstration of common
techniques used to compromise industrial environments, cause disruptions
and physical damage. They will also discuss best practices for
monitoring and protecting ICS systems from external threats, malicious
insiders and human error.
WHEN/WHERE:
RSAC 2017 Session # SBX3-W4, Wed., Feb. 15,
2017, 3:00 - 3:30PM PST

About the Indegy Platform
Indegy is a leading industrial
cyber security company that protects Industrial Control Systems (ICS)
used in critical infrastructures, utilities and manufacturing industries
against external and internal threats by providing comprehensive
visibility into the control-plane engineering activities performed in
operational technology networks. Indegy’s Industrial Cyber Security
Platform automatically discovers all controllers (PLCs, RTUs, DCSs) on
ICS networks, monitors all access and changes, and validates their
integrity ensuring no unauthorized changes go undetected. By tracking
and alerting in real-time on control-plane engineering activities Indegy
can identify threats that place the safety, reliability and security of
industrial networks at risk before damage occurs.
About Indegy
Indegy provides real-time situational
awareness, visibility and security for Industrial Control Systems (ICS)
used across critical infrastructures -- energy, water utilities,
petrochemical plants, manufacturing facilities, etc. The Indegy platform
monitors control-plane activity to ensure the reliability of ICS
networks and protect against cyber attacks, malicious insiders and
operational mistakes. The company was named one of the 10 Most Promising
Cyber Security Startups by Forbes Israel, is a TiE50 winner and Network
World Hot Security Startup to Watch. For more information visit www.indegy.com,
