Audience:

Teams working in projects related to Connected Devices, Smart Places, Factory of the Future, Industrial IoT, Energy, Oil and Gas.

Ideal attendee will be:

• Security Teams
• Operational Technology/Engineering(ICS) (Personnel securing facilities such as factory floor, substations, oil and gas facilities.)

Industries: - Energy - Utility - Manufacturing - Oil & Gas

What to expect:

• Session: This session is 100% Hands-on, no previous knowledge in Azure is required, you will learn by doing, it is important you are a person with Security experience or an Industrial control system engineering working in facilities. You will work with us all day, block any distractions during this day. Explanations will happening while we are building the solution.

  This session will not be recorded

• IMPORTANT: After the session, you will be able to configure Azure Defender in your facility to assess your own environment, you will have a period of 15 days to schedule a call with Microsoft cybersecurity teams to assess your findings and guide you through the process at no charge.

Date:

• Americas: Oct/21/2021
• Time: 9am to 5pm EST Time

Azure Defender Vocabulary

• Sensor: Linux machine, physical hardware running Azure defender connected to the network.
• Manager: Linux machine, physical hardware running Azure defender connected to the network. It connects to multiple sensors to summarize data, alerts across multiples systems, carries the PCAP Configuration and new updates. Central Manager can be used to update the sensor's version and threat intelligence, can also connect to many SIEM systems if needed.
• IoT: Internet of Things. Modern, new standard connected devices.
• IIoT: Industrial IoT.
• OT: Operational Technology, old equipment and technology (e.g, conveyer belts, PLCs).
• Brownfield devices: Type of legacy equipment and legacy software that performs discrete function in isolation, usually nobody is willing to modify existing, well-functioning legacy assets.
• ICS: Industrial Control systems
• Greenfield devices: New and smart "cyber-physical systems", supporting new software landscape such as open communication protocols and open standards such as MQTT, REST APIs, AMQP, OPC-UA, MTConnect and CodeSys.
• SIEM: Security Information and Event Management
• Section 52: Microsoft Team dedicated to search for threats in the IoT and OT World.
• PCAP file: Packet Capture or PCAP (also known as libpcap) is an application programming interface (API) that captures live network packet data from OSI model Layers 2-7.
• Zero Trust Principles: Assume breach, verify explicitly, use least privilege access (identity at network).
• XDR: Cross detection and response
• Purdue Model

  • Level 0 - Process: Physical Machinery (actuators, pumps, cutters, mechanical arms, etc).

  • Level 1 - Basic Control

  • Level 2 - Supervisory Control

  • Level 3 - Site operations, computers such as linux providing site information to operators

  • Level 4/5 - IT Environments
