Cyber Senate are pleased to announce Jonathan Pollet, CEO and Founder of Red Tiger Security, will be joining us in London March 21/22 and in Chicago on May 23/24th for the Rail Cybersecurity Summits we will be hosting.
Mr Pollet will be providing “Real-life examples of security incidents that have affected the Transportation sector, hacking techniques used in Penetration Testing ICS and IoT, new wireless attack vectors, and tips for keeping availability and uptime as close to 100% as possible.”
Key Take-Aways for Attendees
1. Understand how vulnerabilities and security gaps within the Transportation Sector has allowed
cyber incidents to disrupt service by dissecting several real-world cases
2. Discover mistakes and security findings disclosed from assessments and penetration tests
performed on ICS/SCADA systems in the Transportation Sector to avoid making those same
mistakes on mission critical networks and systems
3. Learn about new wireless attack vectors and inexpensive hardware available on Amazon that
can be used to target wireless systems used in the Rail Industry
4. Participate in discussions at the end of the session on how best to secure critical ICS and IoT
systems used in the Rail Sector to avoid impacts to availability of service
Jonathan Pollet, Founder and CEO of Red Tiger Security has over 20 years of experience in Industrial Process Control Systems and Cyber Security. After graduating from the University of New Orleans in Electrical Engineering, he was hired by Chevron and designed and implemented PLC and SCADA systems for onshore and offshore processing facilities in the 1990s. In 2001 he began to publish several white papers that exposed the need for security for Industrial Control Systems (ICS). He is one of the initial charter members of the ISA99/IEC62443 standard, assisted in the drafting of several NERC CIP standards and advisories, and was also on the drafting team for the GIAC GICSP certification. He is still active in the research of vulnerabilities within real-time ICS systems today. Pollet and his team have conducted over 400 security assessments of live Industrial Control Systems around the world and has trained over 3500 professionals with their ICS/SCADA Security Training Courses.
Throughout his career, he has been involved with SANS, IEEE, ISA, ISSA, EEI, UTC, CSIA, NERC, and several other professional societies. Pollet has developed and presented workshops on ICS and SCADA Security to the FBI, Department of Homeland Security, Department of Defense, UK CPNI, Canadian PSEPC, and Australian Ministries of Defense for Critical Infrastructure, and has spoken in over 200 conferences and workshops around
the world. He has also been featured on Fox News, CNN, CNBC, Vanity Fair, Popular Mechanics, CIO Magazine, and several security publications.
