Defining “normal” and taking the first step in next-gen threat detection Organizations face an increasing array of threats, from sophisticated malware to insider threats. Behavioral baselining helps companies safeguard sensitive data and maintain robust security postures by clearly defining what “regular” looks like. Let’s dive into what behavioral baselining is, and why it’s critical for...

Root cause analysis is not just about figuring out the technical problems that may have occurred, as Forbes describes. Technical problems rarely exist in isolation. They often occur within the context of a larger process or workflow. If that process is inefficient, it can create conditions that make technical problems more likely to occur, or harder to detect and fix.
Insight #3: Fixing culture helps fix security So many interesting interactions with peers over the last few months are making me realize that there is still a major disconnect between finding and fixing vulnerabilities and the culture that drives it. Too many security leaders don't care about culture and care more about resolving risk. But I would argue that creating a positive security culture will naturally help to address vulnerabilities faster (The post Cybersecurity Insights with Contrast CISO David Lindner | 09/20/24 appeared first on Security Boulevard.

On September 17 and 18, a series of devastating explosions rocked Lebanon, resulting in 37 fatalities and nearly 3,000 injuries, according to the Lebanese Minister of Public Health. Initial investigations suggest these attacks were not mere accidents but rather the result of a sophisticated cyber operation targeting communication devices. Understanding the Attack Experts indicate that […]

Attacks on critical infrastructure The explosion of the Soviet gas pipeline in 1982 was one of the first well-known instances of critical infrastructure being targeted through a software modification that contained a hidden malfunction. In this instance, the Soviets were stealing Western technology and the CIA slipped the flawed software to them without their knowledge. While the explosion itself didn’t cause any fatalities, it did cause some damage to the Soviet economy as per Washinton Post. With the intensification of hybrid warfare, we have seen multiple attacks on ICS-based critical infrastructure in Europe and the Middle East. These attacks were designed not just to destabilize the systems but also to cause a major kinetic impact. No systems or assets are out of bounds today. State-backed actors from countries like North Korea are not just after technology and revenue but also act as conduits for other countries to infiltrate the critical infrastructure of their adversary nations. Read more: Buyers guide to OT/ICS cybersecurity solutions A case study In a recent instance, Sectrio’s Asset Research Team uncovered an anomaly in hardware supplied to a critical infrastructure operator. In this instance, same OEM supplied was supposed to supply the same hardware to two divisions of the same business. However, the hardware supplied to one entity, when examined, showed a deviation that was found to enable a backdoor communication with an obscure server using a now obsolete protocol that was sparingly used in the 90s. The OEM in this case claimed that the anomaly was a generational remnant from an old version. How it made its way to only one piece of hardware and not the other is a question that was not answered to our satisfaction. The hardware belonged to the same batch and even had sequential serial numbers adding to the mystery. This could be a genuine error but it is an error that could potentially be exploited by a bad actor. Supply chain challenges As the Lebanon episode clearly showed, OEMs now have to ensure the integrity of their hardware well beyond their shop floors. ICS/OT operators should also watch out for anomalous behaviors and risky interactions that could jeopardize operations and plant safety levels. One way of offsetting these challenges is to ensure the systems undergo Security Acceptance Tests (SAT) along with Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT). This will ensure the integrity of the assets and call out any security issues before they are added to the infrastructure. A ‘maker-checker’ approach is the way to go. Recommended cybersecurity measures to risk-proof ICS assets While IEC 62443 and NIST CSF-based risk assessment and gap analysis is a good place to start, the outcomes of such an assessment can and should be used across the enterprise to improve security posture.

If your organization is not already preparing to comply with the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), now's the time to begin. This is a European-wide regulation, which means it will be implemented in the same way across all European Union (EU) member states. However, its practical application will impact anyone placing digital products or products with digital elements into the European market.
