As cyber threats increasingly target critical infrastructure, businesses must strengthen the security of their OT environments without compromising reliability or performance. Explore real-world SCADA projects that demonstrate how structured OT cybersecurity hardening programs improve network security, access control, system resilience, and compliance. Gain practical insights into key security measures, lessons learned, and the importance of integrating cybersecurity into SCADA design, delivery, and ongoing operations.
Discover how Coliban Water transformed operational visibility across its water and wastewater network using ODASA. Through control room dashboards and automated analytics, operators can monitor hundreds of assets at a glance, identify emerging issues earlier, and make faster, more informed operational decisions.
Heard the hype around cloud architectures, software-defined control, edge computing, and AI-enabled operations etc.? This session provides a practical, unbiased update on the latest developments from leading SCADA and automation suppliers and what they mean for end-users today. Insights into emerging trends, separating hype from reality, and better understanding the future direction of SCADA systems.
As monitoring programs become more complex, utilities need better ways to manage data, maintain compliance, and respond to changing regulatory expectations. Using PFAS as a real-world example, this presentation demonstrates how WaterOutlook supports data collection, reporting, auditability, and operational decision-making across a wide range of water quality and environmental monitoring programs.
Join Goulburn Valley Water as they share the lessons learned from planning and procuring a significant digital infrastructure investment. Hear about the complete journey, from identifying the need for change and developing the business case, through software trials, stakeholder engagement, requirements gathering, to the selection of both the SCADA platform and systems integrator. Gain valuable insights into balancing vendor and integrator selection, maintaining probity, securing organisational buy-in, and achieving the best long-term outcomes.
Think arc flash is just a high-voltage problem? Think again. Drawing on nearly four decades of power systems
experience and hundreds of real-world studies, explore why everyday low-voltage switchboards can carry the
highest risk of all. Providing a practical, step-by-step roadmap for calculating, evaluating, and mitigating arc flash hazards.
How do utilities move from reactive SCADA investment to a clear, long-term roadmap aligned with business objectives? In this joint presentation, Wannon Water and SGA will share the journey of developing a comprehensive SCADA strategy and establishing a new OT Steering Committee. Together they will unpack the business drivers behind the initiative, the process of building organisational support, and the governance and operational improvements made along the way.
Modern PLC applications often become more complex than necessary through excessive tags, setpoints, repetitive code and inefficient communications. Explore practical strategies for simplifying PLC and SCADA solutions to improve performance, maintainability and reliability, while potentially reducing hardware costs. It demonstrates how a leaner approach can often deliver better operational results.
