When news of the Stuxnet virus went viral a few years ago, Siemens was at the center of the cyber security spotlight and has since worked to become a leader in the field. Industrial control system (ICS) expert Eric Byres brought attention to Siemens' efforts to be one of the first to advise end users not to depend on air gaps as a means of security during the Automation Conference 2013.
