Class Description
Operational Technology (OT) is hardware and software that controls physical processes like
factories and power plants. These processes are far more efficient when networked services
monitor, control, and automate them, but also are exposed to network attacks.
The primary OT protocols, such as Modbus and DNP3, are decades old and lack security features.
This class covers the risks of OT installations and how to secure them.
No experience with programming or hardware is required. It's recommended to have familiarity with networking at the Network+ level.

Quizzes
The quizzes are multiple-choice, online, and open-book. However, you may not ask other people to help you during the quizzes. You will need to study the textbook chapter
before the lecture covering it, and take the quiz before that class.
Each quiz is due 30 min. before class. Each quiz has 5 questions, you have ten minutes to take it, and you can make two attempts. If you take the quiz twice, the higher score counts.
Don't use CCSF's Canvas system for this class. Instead, all students
