Impact of IT/OT Convergence on the Resilience of Critical Infrastructures (IOCRCI)
Scope of the workshop
Our economy and society are increasingly dependent on the proper functioning of critical infrastructures such as for example electricity supply networks, drink water systems, water works, road traffic systems, and gas distribution systems. Traditionally, critical infrastructures are isolated systems. However, they are increasingly being connected to other systems and the internet. Digitalization is an irreversible trend because of significant business advantages such as reduced overhead and process optimization. The digitization of critical infrastructures, also referred to as IT/OT convergence, requires novel methods, models and technologies for design, detection, response, and recovery from cyber-attacks and (cascading) failures in converged IT/OT systems.
This halfday workshop focusses on the following theme: what is the impact of IT/OT Convergence on the Resilience of our Critical Infrastructures.
The workshop can be seen as a continuation of a series of workshop, jointly organized by Delft University of Technology and University of Girona, on the theme “Robustness of Complex Networks”. For the last three editions see:
