Cyber and the Water Sector: Progress and Next Steps

It has been three years since the 2017 Water Sector Cyber Security Strategy was released, four years since the National Cyber Security Strategy of 2016 was published and almost two years since NIS Directive Implementation.

As Government designs its new cross-sector strategy, it is important to reflect on how far the water sector has come in terms of cyber resilience as well as looking forward to see how we can tackle both emerging and persistent threats.

In this session, professionals from across the cyber and water sectors will come together to reflect on what has worked well, where improvement is needed and where there is room for greater cooperation and collaboration between the cyber security sector and the water sector.

This techUK briefing will explore this landscape, touching on key issues including:

• NIS Directive impacts: where have we seen progress?
• Emerging threats: how is the threat landscape changing, post-COVID?
• Technological innovation: how can the water sector keep pace with key security innovations?
• Exploring how organisations across water and cyber can better engage, sharing best practice and partnering effectively.
