In previous meeting discussed that this task is not for WG2 but for IALA WWA. WG2 could provide support when specific questions can be submitted to the WG2. The WWA is invited to look at the european project for the watersector. https://www.rijkswaterstaat.nl/en/projects/international-projects/athena-cyber-resilience-of-critical-infrastructure-in-the-water-sector

There by means of VR and gamefication the operators are trained in recognizing and acting on posible cyber security incidents. This training could be tranformed to be used for the IALA domain topics.
