Scrum Team

A single, cross-functional unit in Scrum made up of the Product Owner, Scrum Master, and Developers who collaborate to deliver value each Sprint.

Key Points

  • Includes the Product Owner, Scrum Master, and Developers as one cohesive unit.
  • Self-managing and cross-functional, with shared accountability for delivering value and meeting the Sprint Goal.
  • Creates a usable, Done Increment every Sprint and adapts through Scrum events.
  • Works transparently with no sub-teams or special titles within Developers.

Example

A fintech company forms a Scrum Team with a Product Owner from the business, a Scrum Master, and six developers (frontend, backend, QA, UX). They run 2-week Sprints, plan work together, hold a Daily Scrum, and demonstrate a working payment feature at the Sprint Review.

Explanation: The Scrum Team is the unified group consisting of the Product Owner, Scrum Master, and Developers who collaborate to deliver value each Sprint.

ICS/OT Cybersecurity Fundamentals — Security Built for Industrial Systems

Industrial control systems cannot be secured like ordinary IT. A forced reboot, aggressive scan, or incompatible patch can interrupt production and create real safety consequences. Effective OT security begins with understanding the systems, constraints, and risks unique to industrial environments.

This course gives IT professionals, engineers, operators, and security practitioners a practical foundation in ICS threats, zone and conduit design, risk assessment, passive asset visibility, and vendor evaluation. You will learn how IEC 62443, NIST CSF, and MITRE ATT&CK for ICS apply where availability and safety come first.

Eight reconstructed incidents—including Stuxnet, Triton, Ukraine 2015, Colonial Pipeline, and PIPEDREAM—show how attackers move through OT environments, what they target, and which defenses could have changed the outcome.

Watch the course preview, then build the vocabulary, frameworks, and judgment needed to take credible first steps in ICS/OT cybersecurity.

Build an ICS/OT cybersecurity foundation that fits the real environment

Standard IT controls can disrupt the industrial systems they are meant to protect. Learn how to assess OT risk, design zones and conduits, apply IEC 62443 security levels, use MITRE ATT&CK for ICS, and establish passive asset visibility without risking production. Eight reconstructed incidents connect attacker techniques to the controls that failed, giving you the vocabulary and judgment to make credible security decisions from day one.
