The STAMP Workshop
STAMP is a new accident causality model based on systems theory and systems thinking that addresses critical challenges in system engineering, safety, and cybersecurity such as complex software, human-decision making and human factors, new technology, social and organizational design, and safety culture. STPA is a powerful new hazard/cybersecurity analysis technique based on STAMP while CAST is the equivalent for accident/incident analysis. These tools are now used globally in almost every industry.

The STAMP Workshop provides an opportunity for practitioners to share their applications and experiences using these analysis techniques. The Workshop includes free tutorials so everyone can participate, regardless of experience with STAMP or the STAMP-based analysis techniques.
