About the Cyber Security (OT) course in Dubai
This Cyber Security (OT) course in Dubai teaches how to protect industrial control systems such as PLC and SCADA networks. It helps automation engineers, IT staff and plant managers in the UAE who need to keep production systems secure and running.
OT cyber security protects industrial control systems such as PLC and SCADA networks from attacks that could stop production or cause damage. It differs from IT security because safety and uptime come first.
Solve Tech's Cyber Security (OT) course in Dubai runs for 40 Hours, delivered online, offline and hybrid, with weekend and weekdays batches at our Deira centre near Al Rigga Metro.
