Lesson programme
During the training course, you gain insight into the world of malware and digital attacks. You learn how ransomware, trojans, spyware, worms, rootkits, keyloggers and wiper malware work, and what impact they have on systems and organisations. Well known industrial cyberattacks such as Stuxnet and Shamoon are analysed, including their purpose, method and consequences. In addition, extensive attention is given to the security of Industrial Control Systems. You learn how PLC, SCADA and DCS systems work, where their vulnerabilities are and what role industrial protocols play. The human aspect is also covered through social engineering: phishing, USB baiting, shoulder surfing, piggybacking and eavesdropping are discussed using recognisable practical situations.
The programme
The training course starts with an overview of current threats in cyberspace and the development of cyberattacks. This is followed by a deeper look at malware and the various forms of attack. Industrial cyberattacks such as Stuxnet and Shamoon are then discussed as practical cases. In addition, the training explores ICS security with attention to PLC, SCADA and DCS systems, industrial protocols such as Modbus, Profibus and OPC UA, and infrastructure measures such as network segmentation, MAC address filtering, VPN connections and managed switches. The programme concludes with the topic of social engineering and an interactive session in which you translate the threats into your own working environment and concrete defence measures.

Signal Processing & Fourier Analysis: From raw measurement data to reliable technical decisions
Technical Modules
11 half-day session
Rotterdam
In modern technical systems, measurement data is everywhere. Sensors continuously measure vibration, pressure, temperature, flow and electrical signals. In practice, this data is rarely clean. Noise, disturbances and unstable behaviour make it difficult to determine what a system is actually doing. Signal processing is the discipline that enables engineers to solve this problem.
The benefits

The importance of good cybersecurity
Cybersecurity is no longer optional. Attacks involving ransomware, phishing or sabotage of industrial systems are becoming increasingly common. Without the right knowledge and skills, every organisation runs serious risks. A cybersecurity course not only helps you increase your technical knowledge, but also raises awareness. In our cybersecurity awareness training, we therefore focus on recognising threats and teaching safe behaviour among employees.
The threat of cyberattacks increases every day. By investing in knowledge and skills in time, you make your organisation more resilient and safer. View our range of cybersecurity training courses and choose the course that matches your learning objectives.
