Defense, preparedness and response to protect critical infrastructure discussed at Intersec 2022


The 23rd edition of Intersec presents the industry’s most comprehensive showcase to date as it brings together regional and international government services, law enforcement, civil defense, emergency services, oil, gas, energy, transport, and telecommunications as they are the key pillars of many nations’ economic infrastructure.

The coronavirus pandemic has caused a surge in threats, a lot of which have targeted stakeholders and companies whose employees must now access critical infrastructure, such as industrial control systems (ICS) and operational technology (OT) networks, from home.

This year’s launch of the Safeguarding Critical Infrastructure Conference ensures that stakeholders have a place to discuss keeping infrastructure assets safe and protected against physical harm and cyber-attacks. This year’s theme is perfectly placed to compass “Defending, preparing, responding and building resilience”.

The conference will address topics such as: smart cities security, how we might protect critical infrastructure assets and systems against cyber-attacks, ICSs, climate risks issues, global supply chains and the future of 5G networks.  In addition, we address national emergency preparedness, physical security of infrastructure and sector specific opportunities to help industry prepare, defend, and respond to disruption. We invite leading nations, organizations, and project leaders to come together once again at Intersec in 2022.
