OT Defenders Summit is an exclusive gathering for the people responsible for protecting industrial operations, critical infrastructure and complex OT environments.
Built by OT practitioners with real-world experience across factory floors, offshore platforms, utilities and manufacturing sites, the summit brings together a carefully selected community of security leaders, engineers, asset owners, operators, practitioners and trusted technology partners.

AN EVENT BUILT FROM THE FACTORY FLOOR UP

This is not a generic cybersecurity event or a vendor-led sales conference.
OT Defenders Summit is built from operational experience – shaped by people who understand control rooms, production environments, engineering constraints and the reality of securing live OT systems.
The focus is practical technical insight, honest peer discussion and real-world OT security lessons that can be taken back into operational environments.

SPEAKERS

OT Defenders Summit will bring together experienced voices from across the industrial cybersecurity community, including OT security leaders, engineers, asset owners, operators, practitioners and trusted technology partners working with critical infrastructure and industrial environments.
The speaker programme is built around practical technical insight, real operational challenges and lessons learned from the field. Sessions will explore the topics that matter most to those safeguarding plants and infrastructure, including OT cyber resilience, process automation security, remote access, third-party risk, threat detection, incident readiness, recovery, and the use of digital and physical twin environments for testing, training and uptime optimisation.
Rather than generic cybersecurity presentations or sales-led discussions, the summit will spotlight case studies, technical perspectives and honest conversations from people who understand the realities of securing live operational environments.
