Dan focuses on how one could accurately generate OT data to train security products and personnel on how to spot "bad". With unlimited funds you can buy all the necessary software and devices for your lab. But what if your budget is closer to $0?

One answer is the free emulation libraries for OT protocols and applications. Dan shows how he used and customized some of these libraries to create pcaps, yara and suricata rules and more. Sometimes this is emulation library talking to emulation library and other times this is having the emulation library talk to a real device.
