Learn how to be prepared for a cyber incident. How do you prepare, react and create best practices for repeat incidents?
There have been several high profile cyber attacks in oil and gas, including Engie in 2022 and Colonial pipeline in 2021. Many more happen but go unreported.
Responding to cyber events in the highly complex world of oil and gas industrial infrastructure is vastly different than responding to potential breach of IT office systems. Considerations for employee and public safety, for environmental impacts, and continuous operations to produce revenue are paramount. That’s why it’s critical to plan and test response BEFORE incidents occur.
We’ll talk through the key elements of an incident response plan in Oil and Gas, cover some of the scenarios to consider to protect against, the steps to create the plan. We will also discuss key controls to minimize risk and exposure to cyber attacks, with a few key questions to benchmark your preparedness.
