Every cyber security decision in a safety-critical environment is also a safety decision — but the connection is rarely obvious until something goes wrong. This collection of three interactive scenarios, developed as resources relating to the CyBOK Security-Informed Safety Topic Guide, places you at the precise moment where those two worlds collide. In a ransomware-hit hospital ward, the question of which network segment to isolate is also a question of which patients lose monitoring. In a battery storage facility, a falsified sensor reading is a cyber attack and a thermal runaway waiting to happen. In a cyber insurance claims suite, a policy clause written before anyone understood IT/OT convergence must now cover £8.2 million of consequences. Each case is drawn from realistic sector architectures and regulatory frameworks, and each requires you to navigate the trade-offs that security and safety engineers actually face — under time pressure, with incomplete information, and with real consequences for the decisions you make.

It is 07:30 on a Wednesday morning, and Northgate General Hospital is in crisis. Ransomware struck the enterprise network overnight and the Electronic Health Record is going dark — but no one told the wards. Patients are unmonitored,...
The SCADA screens at Albion Energy Storage show everything is normal. They are lying. Somewhere in the facility's control network, an attacker has falsified the sensor data feeding the Safety Instrumented System — and in Battery Hall 1,...
Albion Energy Storage has submitted a £8.2 million cyber insurance claim, and Meridian's policy is clear — until it isn't. As the Meridian claims team, you are not the engineers who fought the fire; you are the people who must now decide...
