Course Description

Synopsis:

Over the past decade, the concept of smart cities has gained significant momentum, driven by the need to address complex urban challenges such as sustainability, efficiency, and quality of life. As a result, more internet of things (IoT) devices are being incorporated into the infrastructure around us and traditional operational tech (OT) devices are also behaving more like informational technology (IT).  

This has triggered a global alert in terms of the adequacy on the security considerations for OT devices. In the EU, the Cyber Resilience Act covers IoT and most recently in Singapore, the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA) has announced the 2024 OT master plan to address this area. 


As auditors and accountants start to undertake complex roles covering different disciplines, understanding what OT devices are, the role they play in our world and the risks involved will help improve the understanding on the changes happening around us and undertake better risk management measures in this domain.
