Managing Third Party Access Without Losing Control of Your OT Environment
Adam Gurney, Solutions Engineer, Cyolo
Cyolo explores how industrial organisations can securely manage third party and supply chain access without expanding risk or disrupting operations. This session shows how identity based zero trust access session oversight and full visibility give teams control of who can connect, what they can access and how work is carried out across critical OT environments.
11:55 AM
Controlled Change Management for PLC‑Centric and other OT Systems
Name, Job Title, OCTOPLANT
This session focuses on controlled change management for PLC programmes while extending across wider OT systems. Octoplant shows how version control, approvals and traceability apply to PLCs, HMIs and SCADA. Learn how governing who changes what and when reduces downtime, supports compliance and keeps environments stable, secure and audit ready.
12:15 PM
Turning Incident Reporting and Threat Hunting into Actionable Security Evidence
Dom Storey, Principal OT Security Architect, Tenable
Tenable shows how incident reporting and threat hunting can move beyond alerts to become defensible security evidence. This session explains how asset visibility risk based vulnerability management and context rich detection help teams prioritise response support investigations and demonstrate measurable improvements in OT security posture and regulatory confidence.

Practical demonstration on how to reduce your cyber exposure in converged IT/OT environments with TenableOne for OT
The Tenable team will demonstrate how organisations can build a unified approach to cyber risk and normalise their data so that they can take effective risk reduction decisions across their estate by taking a proactive approach to securing converged IT/OT environments.
From Level 0 to 5: Building an Optimal OT Security Architecture
Securing industrial environments requires more than isolated tools—it demands a layered, site-wide strategy. In this hands-on workshop, TXOne Networks walks you through a practical deployment model spanning Levels 0 to 5. Learn how to integrate endpoint, network, and inspection solutions across your ICS stack using TXOne’s OT-native technologies—from portable inspectors to next-gen firewalls. Discover how to design for resilience, visibility, and control—no matter where you are in your security journey.
From Visibility to Action: What It Really Takes to Operationalise CPS Security
This workshop focuses on turning cyber-physical systems (CPS) insights into action, demonstrating what an operationalised CPS Protection Program looks like in practice. It highlights how organisations are maturing beyond ad-hoc approaches and outlines steps to move from reactive security efforts to a repeatable, programmatic model that reduces risk, ensures compliance, and protects operational integrity.
How to protect your organisation against known and unknown threats from USB devices
This presentation will show you what you don't expect: USB is not dead ! Threats are increasing, with 50% of new malware designed to spread via removable devices, and concerns about unknown threats are growing stronger with the rise of AI. Come discover how to protect yourself.

Data Communication between OT and IT systems. Which topologies are most secure?
Organisations need to pass data between their IT/OT environments. Across an estate of sites, you will find a variety of machines/devices on the OT network and a variety of software environments on the IT network.
In this presentation we will explore how to create a universal OT/IT stack, with security designed into its structure.
