Separating Corporate and Industrial networks at a nuclear site was one of my projects a number of years ago before cyber threats were a 'thing'. This is an interesting paper. Human injection of threats have always been thought of as the biggest threat to systems. Stopping it getting onto the system must always be the first line of defence, whether it be from software updates from manufacturers or code changes by staff. Watching with interest. https://lnkd.in/g3Vw9awU

AI is going Nuclear. A basic text response from these AI models can consume enough energy to power a 10-watt LED bulb for an hour. In comparison, a typical Google search can consume electricity equivalent to powering a 10-watt LED bulb for about two minutes. https://hubs.li/Q02V6pP40 #cybersecurity #cyber #ai #datasecurity #infosec

#cybersecurity #systemsengineering I recently joined an Executive Advisory Board (EAB) for an improv team at Sandia National Labs charged with solving a wicked problem. (For those unfamiliar with the concept of a wicked problem, it is one for which there is no absolute solution, but a solemn responsibility on the problem solver to pursue a goal of continuous improvement.) Simply stated, the problem is to provide methods to achieve empirical, measurable?Digital Assurance?for High Consequence Systems?(such as nuclear weapons, hypersonics, space, and critical infrastructure). For more detail, see?https://lnkd.in/eVYW7sQF. Coincident with the problem definition is the recognition that it is a hard, though not exactly wicked, problem to integrate digital security in early phases of systems engineering. There are various reasons that problem is hard, e.g. the speed at which digital technology changes, the lack of classification standards for digital components, and unstated assumptions that software can be built to accommodate functional capabilities of physical components. Given that there is not a plethora of research in this field, Sandia is attempting to partner with any and all researchers interested and capable of lending a hand with both the wicked and hard problems (academic, industry and/or government).

?? As we navigate the intricate landscape of technology, parallels emerge between past and present. Just as nuclear advancements demanded stringent controls, the dawn of Quantum Information Science (QIS) beckons a similar call to action. Co-Founder?Nick Reese ?delves into the transformative potential of quantum computing, from revolutionizing industries to posing unprecedented security challenges. Much like the era of nuclear technology, the dual-use nature of quantum demands proactive measures. ?? Join the conversation to explore the imperative of establishing a dedicated Q clearance for #quantum research. https://lnkd.in/e5PNtZ6N #QuantumComputing #Cybersecurity #Innovation #QClearance #ai Sultan M.

You’ve heard of the Q clearance…and maybe even Q branch of James Bond fame. But how about a #quantum clearance. Check out my latest piece on the protection of quantum #intellectualproperty and a comparison with nuclear regulations. #emergingtechnology

Al McBride: 4 Years of G4S Expertise When asked about the future of the nuclear field, Alistair says it is "undergoing a global renaissance, with new manufacturers and operators looking to enter the market in the next decade. This creates competition which stimulates innovation. Operators will be looking for innovative ways to reduce their lifetime costs and increase efficiency across all their areas, including security. Security will need to keep ahead of this innovation curve and explore novel technologies, which may increase capabilities and reduce costs."

The call for papers for the 14th Nuclear Plant Instrumentation and Control & Human-Machine Interface Technology (NPIC&HMIT) https://lnkd.in/gETbAkSz is posted. The ABSTRACT SUBMISSION DEADLINE IS OCTOBER 25, 2024. The conference welcomes the submission in #sensors, #instrumentation & #controls, #humanfactors, #cybersecurity, #artificialintelligence, and #machinelearning. NPIC&HMIT is the de facto forum for #nuclear #instrumentation and #control and #humanfactors engineering professionals to meet with leaders in industry and academia, discover the state of the technology, exchange information, and discuss future directions.

As we think about the next few years, framing #quantumcomputing?is a critical step needed. Far too often (even with the ongoing discussions around #AI) we end up playing catch up in regulatory, policy and organizational maturation of governance of these new technologies. Take a look at a potential early path forward!

This is a growing concern in the Nuclear Industry. Cyber and Nuclear Specialists have been working hand-in-glove to ensure the UKs nuclear industry remains robust and secure. https://lnkd.in/ei78brax

?? Powering Up Grid Security with Innovation! ?? Entergy has announced a $2 million grant to Jackson State University for the creation of a cutting-edge Critical Power Grid Network Security Lab. This initiative is designed to bolster the cybersecurity workforce and protect vital infrastructure in the nuclear, electric, and natural gas sectors. As cyber threats grow, investing in education and grid security has never been more critical. Exciting times for energy resilience and workforce development!
