09:00 - 10:30
Workshop: OT/ICS security
Hands-on workshop: Building a Defensible Architecture in ICS/OT Networks and Leveraging a SaaS-Based Management Platform
Following a 30-minute introduction, Fortinet OT Security Platform: Comprehensive Approaches to Industrial Cybersecurity, presented by Ivan Krajačić from Fortinet, participants will move into a live demo session.
The demonstration will showcase how to effectively establish a secured OT environment through a demonstration in a demo setting, using Fortinet firewalls specifically tailored for industrial environments. The focus will be on integration with the Nozomi Networks and its Vantage - SaaS-based OT/IoT cybersecurity platform, that unifies asset inventory, network visibility, threat detection, and risk analysis into a central cloud console.
The workshop will be held in Slovene (no translation provided).

Securing Confidential Data in the Cloud: ICS/OT System Management within a SaaS Platform
We will address a (still) taboo topic: Can we — and if so, how — securely manage and monitor sensitive industrial control systems using a cloud-based SaaS platform without exposing proprietary data? Is cloud-based management always appropriate, and where is it not?
Using the Nozomi Networks Vantage platform as a case study, we will explore encrypted sensor gateways, real-time transmission of anonymized metadata, regionally restricted storage, and role-based access controls that preserve confidentiality while providing real-time asset visibility, AI-enhanced threat analytics, and scalable incident response across distributed OT environments.
The lecture will be held in Slovene (no translation provided).
