Here we are and another unusual year has passed. We have all been experiencing signiÞcant shared challenges around the world and though certainly not limited to cyber security, we know we still have a lot of work to do to secure our modern connected society.
On behalf of the tireless (CS)2AI annual report steering committee, I am proud to introduce the second annual 2022 (CS)2AI-KPMG Control System Cyber Security Annual Report. This comprehensive report is the result of signiÞcant participation from our strategic alliance partner, KPMG, who we owe a heartfelt Ôthank youÕ for helping bring this to life. We must also thank Fortinet, Waterfall Security Solutions and many supporting partners (see page 57) and the steering committee (pages 54Ð55) for their important contributions from the research phase all the way through the Þnal report. Through their direct support of (CS)2AI and this joint project, these companies and individuals continue to demonstrate their commitment to help solve the challenges the control systems cyber security workforce face today.
The report was based on survey results from more than 580 industry members at large and a representative sample of (CS)2AIÔs worldwide membership (approaching 25,000 community members today), with questions regarding control system security events, trends in attack activities and protective technologies, and how organizations are prioritizing their efforts to tackle this challenge.
Most of us cannot Ôdo it allÕ and need to choose wisely where our focus goes. The goal of this annual report is to give individuals a clearer picture of what peers are doing and serve as an annual support tool for the many difÞcult decisions we know are being made.
Good luck!
