Staying Safe: Transformation of Digital Plants While Maintaining Cybersecurity
Digitization is bringing a lot of positive qualities into the Oil and Natural Gas industry, especially with the use and opportunity of wireless technology and the Internet. Historically, control systems for electrical, pipelines, and various other systems utilized by the Oil and Natural Gas industry were not connected to the internet and did not have to abide by cybersecurity regulations. As part of a broader effort, The Department of Energy has developed a new maturity model to help improve cybersecurity capabilities. Platforms are being created for employees to use advanced technology at the job site and even when they are not present. Ipads and handhelds are being introduced into the industry and changing the way we work.
This session will discuss the benefits that digitization is bringing into the plants and steps to take to prevent against hackers. Watch the full webinar session here.
