The Cyber Scheme launches training course for IoT/ICS security testers

The Cyber Scheme has announced availability of a new CSII Practitioner Training Course that has been developed as a comprehensive IoT/ICS hacking course. The aim of the course is to teach candidates all the skills they need to securely test and assess connected systems and devices in consumer, industrial, and critical infrastructure environments.  It is designed for beginner-intermediate level security professionals, whether they are engineers, technicians, analysts, or penetration testers.

It teaches a range of practical skills that the candidate will be able to use in multiple scenarios. It has a combination of traditional hacking/pen testing methodology and the hacking of hardware as well as a focus on the practicalities of consulting within an IoT/OT environment, so it doesn’t just focus on the technical aspects of a test. 


Charles While, CEO of The Cyber Scheme says: “In 2024 IOT/OT security isn’t just a nice-to-have.

Our new training course helps organisations to ensure their security consultants understand the specific challenges around securing IoT/OT environments, so they are able to take advantage of the opportunities, while mitigating the threats.”


While continues: “The Cyber Scheme is committed to developing a talent pool of individuals who are able to cross in ..
