About Tim
Few people have done more to shape how we protect the systems that power modern civilization than Tim Conway, SANS Fellow and Technical Director of ICS and SCADA programs at the SANS Institute. A passionate advocate for industrial defenders, Tim has been instrumental in building the field of ICS/OT cybersecurity into what it is today and now, students have the opportunity to learn directly from him. He co-authors ICS456: Essentials for NERC Critical Infrastructure Protection, ICS310: ICS Cybersecurity Foundations, and ICS612: ICS Cybersecurity In-Depth, courses that translate decades of operational and compliance experience into training that equips students to defend what matters most.
