Training Course Overview
As industrial systems become more interconnected and automated, combining functional safety with cybersecurity has become a vital necessity. Functional safety ensures that systems perform reliably and safely under predetermined conditions, while cybersecurity defends these systems from external threats that could jeopardize their functionality or safety.
The Integrating Functional Safety and Cybersecurity in Industrial Systems training course offers an in-depth approach to understanding and applying both functional safety and cybersecurity in industrial settings. Participants will examine the core principles, standards, and best practices for merging these areas, with an emphasis on risk assessment, system design, compliance, and real-world applications. By blending theoretical insights with hands-on exercises, this course prepares professionals to protect industrial systems from both operational failures and cyber threats.
