Few people have done more to shape how we protect the systems that power modern civilization than Tim Conway, SANS Fellow and Technical Director of ICS and SCADA programs at the SANS Institute. A passionate advocate for industrial defenders, Tim has been instrumental in building the field of ICS/OT cybersecurity into what it is today.
In his talk at the OT Cyber Security Summit Finland 2027, Tim Conway focuses on the current state of critical infrastructure cybersecurity, trends, attacks and where nations, sectors, companies, and the community is heading to ensure safe, reliable, and resilient systems.

Drawing on recent hands-on experience, Janne Pirttilahti, CTO at Loihde shares insights from providing OT/IT CSOC services in his keynote speech. He will look at how the service supports cybersecurity work in a broader context and how the differences between IT and OT environments are addressed in practice in incident management and forensics. To conclude, he will present a successful case example of an OT security architecture implementation.
