2024/07/11

When looking at industrial cybersecurity, more attention is being paid to how workers are logging in to access critical machinery, software or data. And according to Trustwave Threat Intelligence’s recent Manufacturing Threat Landscape report, 45 percent of attacks experienced by manufacturers stemmed from the bad guys accessing credentials.Whether by utilizing brute-force tactics, submitting fake support tickets, or purchasing logins on the Dark Web, this seems to prove that hackers would mu...

The Protection and Productivity of Zero Trust

Security Breach ·

2024/06/20

Over the last nearly 100 episodes of Security Breach we’ve discussed a wide range of strategies for protecting the manufacturing enterprise. But perhaps the most polarizing of these has been Zero Trust. While some unwaveringly champion the cause of this approach, others question the ways in which it is typically deployed. Perhaps this dichotomy is best represented in Palo Alto and ABI Research’s The State of OT Security report. It found that 93 percent of those surveyed were familiar with Zer...

OT's Legacy Tech Challenges

Security Breach ·

2024/06/12

One of the more common obstacles that we discuss here on Security Breach is how increased connectivity has combined with new Industry 4.0 technologies to constantly expand the OT attack surface. In the midst of all this expansion, it’s easy to either overlook cybersecurity concerns, or put too much trust in the embedded security features of the new assets. So, while this usually brings up conversations about endpoint security, integration processes and secure-by-design protocols, let’s t...

2024/06/05

Those of you with a military or law enforcement connection are probably, and unfortunately, familiar with the term collateral damage. While this phrase has a legacy in these environments, it’s also become an unwelcome addition to the realm of cybersecurity.Examples of this dynamic can be found in a number of hacktivist attacks that targeted infrastructure in a certain region, but either through unrealized connections or other bad actors simply following the blueprint, impacted facilities acro...

Viewing hacks as diseases to address evolving threats, vulnerabilities and tools like AI.Like many of you, I recently dove into Verizon’s 2024 Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR). And while there’s a plethora of data housed in the report that could fuel conversations on a multitude of topics, I chose the following two pieces of information:While credential harvesting and phishing attacks still led the way, the use of exploitable vulnerabilities to access networks tripled from last ...

Many attacks on manufacturers are just the first step in going after even bigger targets.One of the inescapable truths about the industrial sector is that it is usually the ultimate proving ground for product performance. When we look at some of the technologies that have created seismic social shifts, tools like operational software, wireless connectivity and numerous monitoring devices were not ready for the demanding industrial environment right away.When it comes to cybersecurity, that dy...
