OT Security

For manufacturing companies, technology has taken over a good deal of the day-to-day operations occurring on the manufacturing floor. Things like robotics, CNC machines and automated inventory management. There are even systems that track what tools are used, by whom and for how long. This technology often works outside of or flies under the radar ...

Manufacturing environments rely heavily on Operational Technology (OT) systems – such as industrial control systems, supervisory control, PLCs etc. to manage production processes. Compromises of these networks and systems can have devastating consequences, including: • Production disruptions and downtime • Safety hazards: • Data breaches ...

Ahoi new VM attacks ahead! HTTP/2 floods, USB Hid and run, forwarded email tricks, attackers be scanning, a bunch of nerds write software and give it away for free, your TV is on the Internet, Rust library issue, D-Link strikes again, EV charging station vulnerabilities, and rendering all cybersecurity useless.

An attacker could gain remote access to network-attached storage and execute arbitrary commands.

pfSense switches to Linux (April Fools?), Flipper panic in Oz, Tales from the Krypt, Funding to secure the Internet, Abusing SSH on Windows, Blinding EDR, more hotel hacking, Quantum Bleed, and more!

A voluntary labeling program offers dividends at home and abroad and will secure the IoT ecosystem across important verticals such as energy, healthcare, and manufacturing.

Operational Technology (OT) security is concerned with protecting embedded, purpose-built technologies enabling our industrial processes. You also may have heard “adjacent” buzzwords like Internet of Things (IOT) and Fog (like “cloud” but close to the ground). OT security has significant challenges in terms of cost/size/weight, capability, ability ...
