Despite the somewhat ominous title, this is not a FUD (Fear/Uncertainty/Doubt) talk, but rather an in depth discussion of what an industrial/ICS/DCS/SCADA/IoT environment is, it's evolutionary progression, and most importantly why it matters.

This discussion will break down the differences and nuance in these common infrastructures and discuss why most people are flat out wrong in their understanding and assumptions of the environments. If time permits, we can discuss/Q&A the stuxnet package - as much as I hate talking about it (STILL), most people get this wrong too.
