AI is widening the attack surface of the critical infrastructure facilities and services that state, local, and education (SLED) organizations run. In the final post of our Cybersecurity Awareness Month series, we explain how a whole-of-state security approach can help SLED agencies protect their critical infrastructure. Key takeaways Because cyber attackers prey on under-resourced targets, they often go after SLED organizations, especially those that operate critical infrastructure, including…
Introduction Imagine you’ve ordered a small paper unicorn from an online marketplace. You clicked “Buy”, received a cheerful notification, and expect a courier to bring the box tomorrow. If the unicorn is delayed by a day, it will be annoying but not catastrophic: an apology, a discount promo code — and the incident is forgotten. Now let’s multiply one late unicorn by several hundred thousand orders. Packages start heading to the wrong cities. The website shows an item is in stock, even though…
I veckans brev bjuder vi bland annat på rekommendationer om cyberfysiska system, insikter om hur cyberkriminella storskaliga nätfiskekampanjer fungerar och en inbjudan till rundabordssamtal med fokus på lärande för att stärka Sveriges cybersäkerhet.

Critical infrastructure faces mounting threats from nation-state groups and AI-driven attacks. In the latest installment of our Cybersecurity Awareness Month blog series, learn how leading cybersecurity agencies, such as CISA, are advising critical infrastructure organizations on ways to protect themselves and the essential services they provide. Key takeaways Critical infrastructure organizations often struggle with asset visibility gaps that create hidden attack vectors. Many older OT systems…
Le CERT-FR a connaissance de nombreuses compromissions de Danfoss série AK-SM et AK-SC. L'exposition d'une interface de gestion sur Internet est contraire aux bonnes pratiques. Dans le cas où l’administration à distance est impérative, une première mesure temporaire peut consister à restreindre...

Introduction The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)—hereafter referred to as the “authoring agencies”—have published this fact sheet to highlight considerations for critical infrastructure entities to reduce risk and minimize vulnerabilities when working with third-party industrial control system (ICS) integrators. ICS is an umbrella term referring to integrated networks of hardware and software designed to monitor and automate…
AI is accelerating vulnerability discovery, leaving unpatchable operational technology (OT) systems at risk. Hoping for the best is not a viable anti-exploitation strategy. Deploying next-generation firewalls directly upstream allows for virtual patching through deep packet inspection. These systems scan incoming traffic to detect and block exploit attempts before they can impact the vulnerable device.The predictability of legitimate network connections to OT systems can be used to protect…

Australia’s move from the Essential Eight to an outcomes-based cybersecurity model will push organizations from conducting periodic point-in-time, checklist compliance assessments to having continuous evidence of a solid security posture.Key takeawaysThe Australian Signals Directorate (ASD) is moving from the Essential Eight cybersecurity framework to a new outcomes-focused Essentials series covering enterprise IT, cloud, operational technology (OT), and potentially agentic AI.The Essential…
Developed by CISA, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and international partners, this guidance describes how organizations can plan and execute clear, timely, accurate, and audience-appropriate communications during IT and operational technology (OT) outages. Whether caused by cyber threat actors, human error, equipment failure, or natural hazards, service outages can create disruption and societal panic even without speculation from end users and the public as added factors. Outages at one…

Canada’s new Critical Cyber Systems Protection Act (Bill C-8) introduces a strict 72-hour cyber incident reporting mandate. Find out how Tenable is helping critical national infrastructure operators bridge the IT/OT divide to ensure full compliance.Key takeaways:Bill C-8 introduces stringent new cyber incident reporting requirements and heavy financial penalties for critical infrastructure operators. Eliminating network blind spots with a hybrid IT/OT discovery approach, including Safe Active…
