Introduction
“How do I get started in industrial cyber security?”
This is the most common question I receive.
To help answer this question, I wanted to write a quick start guide to share (while I work on a much longer book).
How you get started though depends on your background. Are you an OT engineer or other professional? Are you in IT cyber security? Do you have no experience in either?
This guide is written for those of you in IT cyber security today that want to learn more about the fascinating world of industrial (ICS/OT) cyber security.
