As critical infrastructure—energy grids, water systems, transport networks, and industrial facilities—becomes increasingly digitized, it faces complex cyber-physical threats. This domain equips learners with the knowledge and skills to safeguard infrastructure systems using cybersecurity frameworks, IoT security, industrial control system (ICS) protection, risk assessment, and resilience strategies. Participants gain hands-on expertise in threat modeling, incident response, secure SCADA/ICS operations, and policy compliance.
