Safety constraints Threats, Tactics, and Defenses
RCCE students will learn operational technology environments, ICS/SCADA systems, industrial protocol security, safety-critical systems, and OT network segmentation. RCCE students will learn to protect industrial control systems with security controls that respect operational safety requirements, defend critical infrastructure against cyber-physical threats, and bridge the gap between IT security and OT operations. This threat-focused course teaches students to think like adversaries while building robust defenses. At an expert level, RCCE students will learn to analyze attack techniques, build detection logic, and implement defensive strategies that proactively identify threats before they cause damage. Students develop a threat-informed mindset that drives better security decisions across all operational activities.
