In-house data solutions – otherwise known as ‘the small thing that someone built ages ago and now it’s somehow grown into a critical part of your data infrastructure and you’d rather not touch it because who knows how it all works?’
It’s a very common scenario. But those in-house solutions can quickly become harder and harder to manage and extend to support increasingly complicated requirements.
At some point you face the decision: do you keep improving an in-house solution or has the time come to reassess your needs and look around for a possible off-the-shelf solution?
Join us on this webinar and find out:
– The upsides and downsides of home-grown tools vs. a modern data
management platform
– When to build in-house and when to look for a commercial solution
– How to avoid some of the issues when maintaining home-grown or
commercial solution
– How working with a good vendor can help you get your results faster
with less effort on your side

Join us as cyber security veteran Rick Kaun takes us through navigating the new TSA directive for pipelines (and other future industry targets) – Lessons learned from a regulated industry.
Meetup does not integrate your RSVP with our webinar platform, so registration for this event is required at: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/2643322027922642955?source=08222021MeetupEvent
The recent increase in ransomware events coupled with one of the targets being a large pipeline company has compelled the TSA to issue a new cyber security directive. This means many OT organizations are now scrambling (some more or less than others) to stand up a multi-disciplined security program for a very diverse, distributed OT environment. This looks and feels a lot like the Power Industry was confronted with when NERC CIP was first introduced and so we, as security practitioners, can learn a great deal of lessons from an industry that has already run down this path. Challenges in understanding scope, standing up multiple security initiatives, organizational changes for responsibility, maintenance and response activities and most notably day to day maintenance and compliance can be significant obstacles for operating companies to overcome.
Join us to review a number of security learnings around setting up and maintaining an OT security compliance program such as:
• A multi-disciplined approach is key – treating individual security tasks as silos will create gaps, increase effort and decrease efficiency
• Remediation is a key consideration – simply mapping vulnerabilities or enabling perimeter/network monitoring is just a drop in the bucket – need to be able to reduce risk and attack surface as well as react to emerging situations
• Monitoring – as risk is reduced and new threats emerge the current risk status is always in flux. Being able to monitor and report on current status, changes to the threat landscape or show progress/compliance are key components of a sustainable program
• Automation – as many of these tasks and insights that can be automated the better. OT staff is spread too thin and traditional OT risk reduction approaches are far to manual to provide meaningful and consistent risk management
