Network Security Series Part 3: Encryption and Virtual Private Networks

About

Length: 90 Minutes

Presenter: William (Tim) Shaw

Encryption is both one of the most powerful and misunderstood cyber security techniques available today. Military users have shown us that when properly deployed, it can provide one of the most robust protection systems possible. However, as the recent Wireless Ethernet security fiasco has proven, it can be close to useless when improperly used. This seminar introduces the plant floor engineer to the world of cryptography, focusing on how these systems can be effectively deployed on the typical plant floor.
