BEST OT/ICS CYBERSECURITY TRAINING AND GEN AI TRAINING IN DELHI NCR AND IN INDIA

1. OT/ICS Cybersecurity Training

Focus: Securing the physical hardware and software that control industrial processes (e.g., power plants, manufacturing, oil & gas). Unlike IT security, the priority here is Safety and Availability over Confidentiality (the "CIA triad" is flipped to "AIC").

  • Key Curriculum Topics:

    • Architecture: The Purdue Model (Levels 0–4), Air-gapping, and Zones/Conduits.

    • Protocols: Deep dives into industrial protocols like Modbus, DNP3, BACnet, and PROFINET (and why they are often insecure by design).

    • Standards: IEC 62443 (the gold standard for industrial security), NIST SP 800-82.

    • Threats: APTs targeting infrastructure (e.g., Triton, Stuxnet), ransomware in OT, and "Living off the Land" attacks.

    • Hands-on Labs: Configuring PLCs/RTUs, setting up IDSs (like Nozomi or Dragos), and incident response for physical systems.

2. Generative AI Training

Focus: Teaching professionals how to build, fine-tune, or effectively use AI models (LLMs) that create new content (text, code, images) rather than just analyzing existing data.

  • Key Curriculum Topics:

    • Foundations: How LLMs work (Transformers, tokens, parameters), and the difference between Discriminative vs. Generative AI.

    • Prompt Engineering: Zero-shot, few-shot, and Chain-of-Thought prompting to get reliable outputs.

    • Development: Using APIs (OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic), RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) to connect AI to private data, and fine-tuning models.

    • Risk & Ethics: Hallucinations, bias, data privacy (preventing data leakage), and "Shadow AI" in the workplace.

    • Use Cases: Code generation, automated reporting, and customer service automation.


3. The Convergence: Gen AI for OT/ICS Defense

This is the cutting-edge "sweet spot" where training programs are heading. It focuses on using Gen AI as a force multiplier for industrial defenders.

Application AreaTraining Focus
Incident ResponseUsing Gen AI to instantly summarize complex ICS alert logs and draft incident reports for human review, reducing "mean time to understand" (MTTU).
Threat IntelligenceTraining analysts to use AI to digest thousands of pages of vendor advisories (e.g., Siemens, Rockwell) and map them to their specific asset inventory.
Secure CodingUsing AI coding assistants to write secure PLC logic (Structured Text) or Python scripts for SCADA interactions, with a heavy emphasis on verification.
Red TeamingUsing Gen AI to generate sophisticated phishing simulations or novel attack scenarios to test the resilience of the OT security team.
