9:00 am - 9:45 am SGT PANEL DISCUSSION: Accountability and Responsibility - Minimum Baseline to be Addressed for O&G and Transport

Salem Al-Elwi - Head of ICS Cybersecurity, Saudi Aramco
Mariya Novakova - Cyber Security Risk Adviser, Rio Tinto
  • How are you looking to adopt a culture of cyber security for faster informed decision making?
  • How are you looking to embed a collaborative approach internally to assess when and where cyber security needs to be involved? 
  • How are you securing and protecting data from an availability and integrity stance to protect the safety of people?
  • How are you assessing and managing risk?
  • How can we begin to address internal risk and threats to secondary, and tertiary parties?
  • What steps can be taken to determine security of the whole infrastructure and what steps are you taking to assess the arising challenges of managing a complex environment with legacy applications and vulnerabilities across the organization?

10:00 am - 10:45 am SGT Secure Remote Access Management & OT Visibility for Critical Infrastructures

Kem Pehlivan - General Manager, APJ, XONA

The increased convergence of IT/OT environment in recent years has opened OT systems to the outside world. At the same time, government and critical infrastructure operators in Asia are adopting capabilities that allow for more remote operations to drive productivity and asset uptime. While remote access is becoming a necessity, enabling that access exposes a facility to increased threats. Critical infrastructure facilities are already facing an increase in attacks due to various elements. When workers and third-party vendors use remote communication technologies to directly access critical OT systems, the attack surface can become increasingly complex with new vulnerabilities.

The approach to secure OT network and assets is vastly different from IT security. In this session, learn how components of a zero-trust architecture can make vendor access management more secure, efficient, and scalable.

11:00 am - 11:45 am SGT FIRESIDE CHAT: Assessing IT and OT Major Challenges and the Wider Impact on the Business and Citizens

Jeff Campbell - Manager, Technology (CIO), Horizon Power

The speed at which the attackers can now pivot through an organisation’s network has dramatically increased. There is a need for security holistically and with that in mind, this session will address:

  • Collaborating with HR to create formal sign-off processes, creating DevSecOps workflows and limiting access to the entire infrastructure as much as possible
  • Identify key data groups and interactions where access rules can be applied based on roles and other policy considerations to safeguard data
  • Revamping the security strategy to give it greater oversight over security
  • Identification of critical assets and capturing information to support the risk management programme
