Course summary

The capstone integrates everything from the four specialist tracks into a single multi-day practical examination. You will assess a reference plant end-to-end: risk analysis, architecture review, penetration test, incident-response drill, and executive debrief. Passing earns the IEC 62443 Cybersecurity Expert credential.

Outcomes

  • Perform a full-scope ICS security assessment on a reference plant.
  • Execute a multi-protocol penetration test against live OT simulators.
  • Lead an incident-response drill with realistic safety-critical scenarios.
  • Produce an executive-level remediation roadmap with prioritised controls.
  • Defend assessment findings in a practical oral examination.
