For over 20 years he has been on the leading/bleeding edge helping security conscious asset owners effectively and efficiently manage risk to their critical assets. He and his team have a long list of firsts in the ICS security arena. In 2007 Dale created the S4 Events to showcase the best offensive and defensive work in ICS security and build a community. S4 is now the largest and most advanced ICS event in the world. Through his speaking and writing, Dale is constantly pushing and prodding the ICS community to move faster and get better.

The OT Security Training Market
Today the OT security training market is SANS and then a number of lesser players. Lesser not necessarily in the content or student experience. Lesser in the number of students and market share of the OT security training dollars. SANS is the most expensive, and it also is the largest. They have a proven successful methodology for course development and teacher training and certification.
Dale’s book is filled with a short and important task for each week of the year. If you were unable to get your copy at S4x25, not to worry. We publish each weekly task every Monday. You can see this weeks task and all past weekly tasks on the A Year In OT Security page.
S4x26 returns to Miami South Beach, perhaps for one last time, 23 – 26 Feb 2026. We will be back at the Loews Miami South Beach Hotel. We will be back at the Miami Beach Botanical Garden for the Welcome Party. We will be back at the Surfcomber pool and “beach” for the Cabana Sessions.
Sponsors are now being selected. The Call For Presentations opens on June 16th. Tickets go on sale on Sept 15th.
