Practice

A distinct professional or managerial action that helps carry out a process and may rely on one or more tools and techniques.

Key Points

  • A practice is an activity, not an entire process or methodology.
  • It supports the execution and outcomes of a defined process.
  • It can combine multiple tools and techniques as needed.
  • It is repeatable and can be tailored to the project context.

Example

Holding a weekly risk review meeting where the team updates the risk register, applies a probability-impact assessment, and plans risk responses is a practice that supports the Risk Management processes.

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.
