OT NETWORKS VISIBILITY AND SECURITY: A WEBINAR BY ATS AND CISCO
As cyber threats to critical infrastructure sites around the world continue to dominate news cycles, the topic of industrial cyber security becomes an increasingly important point of discussion.
ATS Advanced Technical Solutions is therefore happy to announce the first upcoming webinar as a certified Cisco IoT Advantage Specialization Partner.
CISCOs IoT Advantage Specialization partner program involved instruction on cutting edge IoT developments and Cisco’s own latest innovations in the field.
This certification will allow ATS to be further established as leading industry experts when it comes to custom tailored solutions and services for the energy, defence and the government sector.
The ATS and Cisco OT Networks Visibility and Security Webinar will take place on
July 13, 2021 at 11 AM GST via BrightTalk. This exclusive online event will focus on how ATS, using the Cisco System IOT solutions portfolio can help critical infrastructures to achieve better asset visibility and protection.
THE SPEAKERS
The webinar will host two distinguished guest speakers from ATS and Cisco.
MOHAMAD ABOULNIAJ (ATS), DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS AND HEAD OF OT CYBERSECURITY
Mohamad Aboulniaj leads the technical vision of ATS. With over 15 years of ICT Infrastructure, cyber security, ICS system design, and project management experience, Mohamad’s unique ability to understand cyber security requirements in a control system environment enables ATS to stay on top of the industry.
PASCAL EYMIN (CISCO), SALES DIRECTOR FOR THE SOUTHERN EUROPEAN REGION
Pascal Eymin has spent 21 years at Cisco on various sales functions (industry, public sector and channel). He joined Sentryo in 2016 as sales director working on end customer projects and the go to the market.

- Introduction to ATS
- Introduction to Cisco Cyber Visionù
- ATS Lab Demonstrations
- Different Cyber-Attack Scenarios
- Protection Solutions and Recommendations.
Samer Abu Arisheh, IoT Regional Sales Lead from Cisco, will be the webinar’s guest moderator.
THE ADVANTAGES OF CISCO CYBER VISION
The webinar will introduce and showcase all the advantages of Cisco’s latest network monitoring innovation: Cyber Vision.
This cutting-edge cyber protection solution represents an all-encompassing asset inventory and security platform for Industrial IoT, which includes Industrial Control System (ICS) oversight, operational insights, and threat detection.
Cisco Cyber Vision is a “bottoms-up” approach to cyber protection, that works on constructing and overseeing a healthy security system from all levels of the internal network.
The beneficial features of this platform include, but are not limited to:
- Tracking all in-system communications, both from IT and OT assets
- Monitoring application flows, with the option of accessing and researching communication history
- Automated identification of system vulnerabilities, with instant information on possible fixes
- Detailed asset properties for the OT team
- Variable accesses
- Built-in reports that can be exported in different formats for eg. risk analysis teams.
All these components of Cisco Cyber Vision and many others will be explored, explained and demonstrated during the webinar.
TOPICS TO BE COVERED DURING THE JOINT WEBINAR
In the first part of the webinar, ATS will introduce and demonstrate the current gas and oil pipeline solutions when it comes to merging OT and IT.
This webinar will also focus on the topic of industrial IoT cyber attacks and latest advances in industrial cyber security in even more detail.
The ATS Lab team has prepared simulations of possible, common attack scenarios when it comes to pipeline sites. Two potential threat scenarios using industrial control system protocol Modbus will be presented
In these simulations, a showcase of the attack with no protection plan in place will be presented, moving on to demonstrating how the implemented symbiosis of OT and IT that ATS deploys work to prevent workplace incidents and hostile system takeovers that cause them.
The webinar will be concluded with a presentation on all possible threat prevention plans that ATS currently offers: from different security hardening strategies, to intrusion detection systems and ICS endpoint security.
