Objectives

  • Basic understanding of the relevant terminology, technologies and elements of IoT and the impact on security
  • Good understanding of the IoT Process, the technology and the convergent to ICS
  • Profound understanding of the threat situation in order to assess personal concerns and dangers,
  • teaching the basic principles of IoT related security frameworks
  • Sound knowledge of organizational and technical security measures,
  • Concrete approaches for implementation in operation
    • in the planning of new systems
    • in the management of security projects (if necessary with external commissioning),
  • The aim of this training measure is to enable the participants to understand the most im- portant correlations in IoT Risk (technical and organizational), to coordinate necessary measures and to communicate with responsible areas of the company.

The course is aimed at staff working on IoT projects, whether in the field of Industry 4.0, Labs and Research, Smart City or hospitals. Prerequisites for level 1 are good IT basics, for level 2 either the participation in the level 1 course or a comparable qualification. The Level 3 course requires good network knowledge. However, it is also aimed at employees in ICS environments who are looking for an entry into the complex IIoT world.

  • 20 hours on-demand video and e-learning
  • One year full Access on all modules
  • Certificate of Completion

It took us some time and discussions to finally publish our new IoT training. Why? Well, there are a lot of IoT trainings on the market, but they often only cover a very superficial part of the topic – and often only from the ICT perspective. On top of that, IoT has undergone a lot of changes in a very short time. In the beginning, it was all about the simple control of consumer electronics – then there was a shift to Industry 4.0. And today, the focus is on data and the cloud. Meanwhile, AI is an integral part of IoT and typical Big Data tools like Kafka or Ranger are part of everyday life. So end-to-end training must master the topics, but also be able to keep up with developments, i.e. be designed to be flexible and integrate new topics very quickly. Another challenge was dealing with the issue of security.

Security is essential for IoT – unfortunately, neither the manufacturers nor the projects had a focus on it. Se- curity means more effort – in the production of hardware and software components, this means higher costs and complexity; in projects, the time required increases. It also means more costs, especially since the necessary experts are extremely rare. Our solution is a modular course concept that address- es the needs of different target groups. As with our IT security training courses, the course content is reviewed quarterly and updated as needed. This ensures that the courses always reflect the current state of the art. The course fee includes a one-year subscription to all training modules, including the updated ones.

The IoT-Fundamentals series is a complete IoT training program that enables the newcomer in this subject to build up sound and applicable knowledge and competencies.

In Level 1 of the Foundation courses, the participant gets a detailed overview of IoT. The differences to ICT and OT are worked out. The participant learns about the basic network functions and gets a first overview of the complex requirements for IoT security and IoT governance – especially from the perspective of Industry 4.0. The second course deepens the knowledge acquired in the IoT Foundation Level 1 course using use cases. The focus of this course is on IoT Security. The participant will learn about the development of security controls for IoT and how to secure applications for IoT. IoT awareness concepts and the specific requirements for malware protection will be discussed in Security. Models for data analysis and decision making in modern IoT ecosystems conclude the course. The third course introduces more complex technologies and modern, software-driven networking – both from an engineering and security perspective. An advanced security module with a focus on ransomware rounds off Level 3.
