Frequently asked questions
Do I need prior knowledge in cybersecurity?
We consider it essential for students to have a basic understanding of industrial environments, including aspects of automation and industrial communications, ideal for this multidisciplinary course.
To facilitate this foundation, before the course begins, CCI will provide access to a virtual and dynamic educational resource. This material aims to give students a solid grasp of these fundamental concepts.
Our ongoing goal is to ensure the highest success for our students and participants.
Why specialize in the design, operation, and maintenance of the industrial electric sector?
- The Cybersecurity in the Design, Operation, and Maintenance of the Industrial Electric Sector course trains industrial automation and IT professionals in the technological risks of the electric sector industry, its communications, and the automation and control systems it uses, such as SCADA systems, and how to apply protective measures to them. During the training, students will analyze and understand the risks associated with these infrastructures and their basic relationship with Industrial Control Systems. This knowledge is essential for any automation or security professional involved with the generation, transmission, distribution, and supply of electric energy.
