OT Worlds Training with Cyber Ranges

A three-day, in-person OT foundations class taught by Aaron Crow and Tom VanNorman. Students work real industrial hardware in the room, integrated with the full Cyber Ranges virtual range and its scenarios and attack plans. Topics run from OT architecture and trust zones through Modbus and DNP3 protocol analysis to IEC 62443 zones and conduits and the ICS kill chain. OT Worlds brings together Cyber Ranges and ICS Village.

Venue: Quantico Cyber Hub, 1010 Corporate Drive, Suite 305, Stafford, VA 22554

ICS Village returns to Marina Bay Sands for DEF CON Singapore 2, right after Black Hat Singapore. We are also teaching OT-101 Foundation, a two-day hands-on class (March 5–6) where small teams work a live simulated water-treatment plant: map it, decode its Modbus and DNP3 traffic, and send their own commands to a PLC. Beginner to intermediate, no OT experience needed.
