A cyber attack on a nuclear facility is not a theoretical scenario. Stuxnet demonstrated that sophisticated state actors can use cyber means to achieve physical destruction of nuclear infrastructure. Since then, documented intrusions into nuclear facility networks have been confirmed by government agencies in multiple countries. The cyber-physical consequence of a successful attack on a nuclear or CBRN facility is categorically different from any other sector: the potential for radiological release, contamination, or loss of life at a catastrophic scale requires a protection approach that goes beyond standard OT security.
This four-day advanced programme is designed for cyber security leads, regulatory compliance professionals, and government advisers working in or with nuclear power stations, CBRN research facilities, nuclear decommissioning sites, and radiological material storage operations. It covers the sector-specific regulatory framework, the unique architecture of nuclear control systems, the insider threat in nuclear contexts, and the cyber-physical consequence modelling that must underpin any serious protection programme.
Nuclear I&C security architecture assessment, IEC 62645 and IAEA NSS 17 compliance, cyber-physical consequence modelling, regulatory inspection preparation, and nuclear insider threat programme design.
Apply IEC 62645, IAEA Nuclear Security Series, and national regulatory requirements to nuclear facility cyber security programmes.
Analyse the architectural vulnerabilities of nuclear I&C systems and design appropriate segmentation and monitoring controls.
Model the cyber-physical consequences of a cyber attack on a nuclear facility and communicate risk quantitatively.
Design and govern an insider threat programme proportionate to the nuclear threat environment.
Lead incident detection and response coordination for a suspected cyber intrusion in a nuclear facility.
Conduct a regulatory compliance gap assessment and prepare for an IAEA or ONR security inspection.
Professional experience in cyber security, OT security, or regulatory compliance for nuclear, CBRN, or critical infrastructure sectors.
Senior professional standing; this is a specialist advanced programme with a focused professional audience.
Familiarity with industrial control system security concepts is beneficial but not required.
