About the course
Complete Industrial Cyber Security Professional
Industrial cyber security isn’t just another IT security niche—it’s a fundamentally different field that protects the systems keeping our modern world running. From power grids to water treatment facilities, from oil refineries to manufacturing plants, OT (Operational Technology) security professionals are the last line of defence for critical infrastructure.
The problem? There’s a massive skills gap. Organizations are desperately seeking qualified OT security professionals, but traditional cybersecurity training focuses almost exclusively on IT environments. Most security practitioners don’t understand PLCs, SCADA systems, or the unique constraints of industrial environments where a security decision can impact physical safety.
That’s exactly why I built this course.
I’m Jenson Berry, an OT cyber security consultant and former Lead OT Cyber Security Engineer for critical national infrastructure with over 4 years of hands-on experience securing critical national infrastructure systems. I’ve designed this course from the same frameworks and methodologies I use professionally to protect systems that handle hazardous materials across multiple sectors.

THE OPPORTUNITY
THE OT SECURITY SKILLS GAP
The OT Security Skills Gap
Organisations protecting critical infrastructure—power grids, water facilities, manufacturing plants—face a growing problem: they can’t find qualified OT security professionals.
87% of critical infrastructure operators report skills gaps. Traditional cybersecurity training focuses on IT environments, but industrial systems require specialized knowledge: PLCs, SCADA protocols, safety-critical risk assessment, and OT-specific compliance frameworks.
That specialised knowledge is in high demand and short supply.
High Demand
87% of critical infrastructure operators report OT security skills gaps. Organisations are actively seeking this expertise.
Specialised Knowledge
OT security requires understanding PLCs, SCADA systems, and industrial protocols—expertise most cyber security professionals don’t have.
Real-World Tested
Learn frameworks from actual engineering work protecting critical national infrastructure systems.
Career Differentiation
Stand out from general cyber security professionals with specialised industrial security expertise.
COURSE OVERVIEW
What’s Inside
OT Fundamentals
Master the critical differences between IT and OT environments. Learn essential terminology, understand emerging threats, and discover why industrial cyber security requires specialised knowledge that most IT professionals lack.
Industrial Control Systems
Dive deep into PLCs, SCADA systems, DCS, and Safety Instrumented Systems. Understand how control loops work and get hands-on experience with industrial programming through practical examples.
Industrial Protocols
Analyse the protocols that power industrial networks – Modbus, PROFIBUS, DNP3, OPC, and more. Practise real packet analysis with Wireshark to understand how these systems communicate
Secure Network Design & Architecture
Learn secure industrial network design principles including the Purdue model, network segmentation strategies, and secure remote access solutions for OT environments.
Threat Landscape & Defensive Strategies
Explore real-world OT attacks through case studies and hands-on demonstrations, practice industrial network reconnaissance to understand how attackers compromise critical systems, then learn defensive strategies including the OT kill chain, MITRE ATT&CK® and lifecycle defence approaches to stop these attacks.
Risk Management & Risk Assessment
Master OT-specific risk assessment methodologies including Cybersecurity HAZOP. Learn system profiling, threat modeling, and how to prioritize vulnerabilities in industrial environments.
Monitoring & IR
Establish effective OT monitoring systems, detect anomalies, and develop incident response capabilities specifically designed for industrial environments where downtime isn’t an option.
Implementation & Controls
Apply practical security controls including asset management, network segmentation, and OT patch management strategies that work in real industrial environments.
Standards & Compliance
Navigate ISA/IEC 62443 and NIST SP-800-82 frameworks. Learn how to map security controls to compliance requirements and ensure regulatory adherence.
Testimonials
What students are saying
Nice pacing, a complete and thorough overview of what OT security is and why must be implemented. The explanations are clear, the examples and use cases are engaging and the materials are extremely well done and detailed.
Alessandro P.
Well laid out, covers the basics right through to useful information on the overview of cybersecurity for industrial control systems in the modern era.
Jacob B.
I’m loving this course! It’s got proper depth and a really logical, step by step feel. Resources are good, the instructor’s clear and talks like he’s actually done the job rather than just read the books.
Chris B.
This course is well designed and well structured.
The practical professional experience, numerous examples and clear diagrams help you immerse yourself in OT cybersecurity.
In addition, Jenson has a very clear accent, which makes it easy to understand for people who are not native English speakers.
I highly recommend this course.
Julien A.
Nicely paced content, helpful glossary resource
Sarah T.
Very clear out of the gate. Looking forward to more
Neville L.
This is an excellent course. I’d recommend it to anyone with a desire for greater understanding around Critical Systems and Infrastructure security
Paul N.
It is a very good course , helpful and complete! i would recommend it
David G.
All round excellent course. I’m a traditional IT Network Architect of 20 years, and this has really filled in some of the gaps.
Ryan B.
Fantastic course, well structured contents and great presentation.
Rakesh T.
Excellent course, very complete, everything you need to know about OT cybersecurity.
Henry M.
The course is progressing in a structured manner, providing a high-level overview of key concepts in the initial sessions while ensuring that all important topics will be explored in greater depth in the later sessions. The instructor’s explanations are clear and easy to follow, making the content accessible even to participants with limited prior experience in OT.
