ICS Cybersecurity Conference 2026
October 6th - October 8th, 2026
Nashville, TNSecurityWeek's ICS Cybersecurity Conference marks its 25th anniversary in Nashville, October 6-8, 2026. What the industrial security community will be discussing, and where modern container practices intersect with OT.
ICS Cybersecurity Conference 2026: what to expect
Now in its 25th year, the ICS Cybersecurity Conference is the longest-running event dedicated to industrial control systems and critical infrastructure security - a different world from cloud-native conferences, but an increasingly connected one as IT and OT environments converge.
Themes to watch
- IT/OT convergence, and the security gaps that appear where the two environments meet.
- Critical infrastructure resilience, covering energy, water, manufacturing, and transportation.
- Regulatory pressure, as ICS/OT compliance requirements continue to tighten.
- Supply chain risk for the software and firmware running industrial systems.
Where container security fits into the conversation
As OT environments adopt more containerized and cloud-connected tooling for monitoring, analytics, and remote management, they inherit the same container supply chain risks that IT teams have been managing for years - often without the same maturity of process.
Echo's CVE-free, FIPS-validated, DISA STIG-hardened images, with full SBOM transparency and signed provenance, give teams bridging IT and OT a documented, auditable starting point for the containerized components entering critical infrastructure environments.
