04 - Operational Technology (with Martin Smith CB MBE & Keith Chappell, Cyber Prism)

In this episode of What The Hack?! , I am joined by Martin Smith CB MBE and Keith Chappell from Cyber Prism to discuss working with Operational Technology. During a 33 year military career, Martin Smith worked extensively in maritime security and maintained a strong focus on information superiority. He led Britain’s maritime counter-terrorism force, modernised the Royal Marines’ information and intelligence capability, commanded multinational counter-piracy operations and was responsible for Britain’s amphibious force. He spent three periods in Afghanistan, both in command of forces on the ground and in Government-level advisory roles, in addition to several other operational deployments around the World. He commanded service personnel at every rank and left the Armed Forces in January 2018 having led the Nation’s 7,000 Royal Marines as their Commandant General. Keith has worked in senior, hands-on cyber security roles for twenty years including the cyber-protection of safety-critical systems on a wide range of vessels and of critical national infrastructure, at home and abroad. He has been employed in government security agencies and more recently was Technical Business Director of L-3 Group. His work has included cyber security surveys on military and civilian vessels from Offshore Patrol Vessels to container ships, cruise liners and superyachts, and the subsequent remedial design and implementation of cyber-attack protection. Keith contributed to the network security architecture of Britain’s Type 26 Frigate, and has developed and implemented technologies that allow Operational Technology (OT) equipment on vessels to be protected and monitored. He contributed to the BIMCO Cyber Security Guidelines for Shipping. Keith is a Fellow of the British Computer Society and is the only Information Auditor within the GCHQ Certified Cyber Professions scheme declared at Lead Professional level (the highest level achievable): indeed, he has recently been asked to act as the competency and experience assessor for others seeking to achieve this qualification.
