This document provides an overview of critical infrastructure protection in Europe presented by Ignacio Paredes of the Industrial Cybersecurity Center. It discusses the convergence of physical and cyber worlds and how industrial control systems have become interconnected over TCP/IP and use general purpose operating systems. This has introduced cybersecurity challenges to operational technology environments. The document reviews cyber attacks on critical infrastructure like Stuxnet and Shamoon and regulations around critical infrastructure protection in the US and EU. It argues that identifying and prioritizing critical infrastructure is important but questions who will pay for protection and whether regulations have led to minimum compliance over real protection.
