In many instances the biggest challenge facing OT cybersecurity practitioners is knowing where to focus resources, especially their time. In other words, what are the priorities for the enterprise, facility and people?I recently sat down with Securin's Lead Threat Intelligence Analyst - Aviral Verma. And while I anticipated a conversation focused on vulnerabilities and the threat landscape, discussing these topics led to deeper dives on a range of topics that also included breaking down IT/OT silos, artificial intelligence, the dark web and patching strategies. Listen as we discuss:The transformation of threat actors and how they've been able to cut timelines for exploiting vulnerabilities to 15 days.How hackers are using Dark Web versions of ChatGPT to design more effective credential and data harvesting schemes.Why the security of every software platform, especially those embedded within industrial assets, cannot be assumed.How the legacy dynamic of many OT assets has led hackers to exploit vulnerabilities that have been around for as long as five years.Addressing patching challenges by breaking down silos and getting a deeper understanding of the unique elements of each OT environment.How threat detection needs to evolve, especially with state-sponsored hackers executing "quieter" strategies for attacking manufacturing and critical infrastructure. As a go-to podcast for our listeners, we want to help you align your brand with our expertise.

One of the great things about covering industrial cybersecurity is the number of reports, studies and white papers being produced right now to help provide intelligence on threats, research on new tools, and data on leading trends.The tough part is sorting through all this data and, at some point, prioritizing it in order to get the most and best information.One source that I look forward to each year is IBM's X-Force Threat Intelligence Index. It's full of all that stuff I just mentioned, but will special attention paid to the industrial sector. Unfortunately, some of that attention results from manufacturing being the most highly attacked industry for the fourth consecutive year. Also, according to the Index, it had the most ransomware incidents in 2024.But, as Chris Caridi, a Cyber Threat Analyst for the X-Force and our guest for today's episode shared with me, the news is not all bad. Watch/listen as we discuss:The rise in infostealer malware, credential harvesting and phishing attacks.The importance of understanding how to secure new technology before investing and implementing it.Why most cybersecurity issues are a human problem, not a technical problem.Why multi-factor authentication is now a must for OT connections.The misconfiguration errors that continue to plague manufacturing, and how they create a series of other cybersecurity problems.How manufacturing's cybersecurity journey is similar to the financial sector 10 years ago, and wAs a go-to podcast for our listeners, we want to help you align your brand with our expertise.

Endpoint security tools worked, but the hackers worked harder for their payday.While everyone likes to know how someone else might have screwed up and what the fallout looks like, the more import elements of episodes like this one come from the in-depth conversations about new tactics and strategies that are being used by the bad guys, and simultaneously, the insight on new best practices for the good guys.So while I did enjoy diving into how the ransomware group Akira was able to use webcam access to infiltrate an organization, it was also great to discuss the evolution of these hacking groups, EDR tools, dark web monitoring and the need for better credential security with Steve Ross. He's the director of cybersecurity at S-RM, a leading provider or cyber intelligence and solutions.Watch/listen as we also discuss:Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) tools.The rise of Akira, and the evolving symbiotic strategies used by this and other RaaS groups.Patching challenges.The growing need for dark web monitoring.The continued rise in login/credential harvesting.As a go-to podcast for our listeners, we want to help you align your brand with our expertise.

Join Michael Badelt from INTYA Creative as he explores turning mistakes into a success: How a small immersive scare attraction went from "Okay“ to "Oh Wow!!“Hear about the sometimes surprising learnings made through the iterations and how those were incorporated back into the show to create an experience that was not just entertaining but had a hidden meaning that was engaging audiences even after the show was over. We will also look at some of the basics behind the emotional concept of fear, its applications and why creating a rather sneaky rollercoaster across the full emotional spectrum might actually be scarier than just going "Boo!"This talk was recorded at the Immersive Experience Network Summit in October 2024 and is supported by Arts Council England and our industry partners Illusion Design & Construct, Mance Communications, White Light, Deterministic, Immersif, d&b audiotechnik, Scene2, Little Lion Entertainment, Entourage, and Vista Insurance.Discover more content from IEN: https://immersiveexperience.network/articles/ Hosted on Acast.

Simon Brind discusses concepts of Agency and Alibi in the creation of Larp and their connections to creating meaningful experiences for participants. In this talk he explores 'Agency' - the ability of an active participant in a story to make decisions that change the story in meaningful ways (and what that means for dramaturgy), 'Alibi' '- the idea that the participant experience can be designed in such a way that they can act or behave in ways that they would not normally act and 'Bleed' - the transfer of experience from participant to character or from character to participant.This talk was recorded at the Immersive Experience Network Summit in October 2024 and is supported by Arts Council England and our industry partners Illusion Design & Construct, Mance Communications, White Light, Deterministic, Immersif, d&b audiotechnik, Scene2, Little Lion Entertainment, Entourage, and Vista Insurance.Discover more content from IEN: https://immersiveexperience.network/articles/ Hosted on Acast.

We talk a lot about the growing complexity of hacking groups and how their tools and tactics continue to evolve. One such evolution is the ongoing specialization that runs rampant throughout the black hat community – especially when it comes to ransomware. The rise of initial access brokers, affiliate programs, spoofing domain creators, dark web communities, and more are fueling ransomware-as-a-service groups and posing new cybersecurity challenges. And while numerous reports detail the rise in ransomware attacks and the escalating amounts being paid in seeking a reprieve from denial of service, data extortion, and supply chain hacks, one recent finding really stood out. In their annual State of Ransomware Report, Blackfog stated that manufacturing had the highest number of undisclosed ransomware attacks, when compared to all other industries. So, as tough as we know the ransomware challenge is – it's actually a bit worse than we acknowledge because of the growing number of attacks that go unreported. Fortunately, we have an army of highly skilled individuals working to combat these threats. And that includes our guest for today's episode - Fortra's senior manager of domain and dark web monitoring solutions, Nick Oram. Watch/listen as we discuss:The surge of new ransomware tactics and groups, like RansomHub.The origins and continued growth of Initial Access Brokers (IABs) within the ransomware community.How affiliate programs are helping both RaaS and IAB groups increase their rate of successful attacks.Why dark web monitoring might be more important than ever for manufacturers.The ongoing "we adapt", "they adapt" dynamic.How to better educate the workforce and shift from a "As a go-to podcast for our listeners, we want to help you align your brand with our expertise.

Breaking down silos while securing the cloud and leveraging secure-by-design advancements.The challenges facing the industrial OT landscape that emanate from external sources are … varied, complex and constantly evolving. Smarter hacking groups, AI-driven phishing schemes and deceptive malware viruses head the list of concerns.And while these factors show no signs of fading, the reality is that there are just as many challenges facing industrial cybersecurity that are embedded within the very foundation of our operations. These legacy dynamics have created internal battles that absorb valuable resources, waste precious talent and help the bad guys stay a step ahead. With this in mind, we're going to tap into two key industry leaders to get their take on pressing, internal liabilities that are ensuring key production assets remain exposed. We'll hear from Silverfort's Rob Larsen, as he discusses the ongoing struggles created by IT/OT silos, as well secure-by-design initiatives. Mandiant's Paul Shaver will also offer his take on these silos, and how decisions related to cloud networking are impacting the security stature of key data, assets and network connections.As a go-to podcast for our listeners, we want to help you align your brand with our expertise.

Stark Future, a Spanish motor vehicle manufacturer with Swedish roots, launched in 2020, began sales and production in 2023 and reported in 2024 that it expected to eventually reach an annual revenue of more than $93 million.However, Stark's latest development did not involve the electric Stark Varg, the company's flagship electric motocross bike. Instead, Stark revealed the Klinga Sabre, a sword manufactured with 3D-printed titanium.Brand Communications Director Benjamin Cobb told IEN that the Klinga Sabre's design process involved blending 3D printing technology, the form language of the Stark Varg and a sculpture of a moose, which functions as a bottle opener.

When we talk about the threat landscape for the industrial sector, the eye-catching, headline-grabbing hacking groups with nefarious names typically lead the list of concerns. And while understanding their well-publicized exploits are important, what is often overlooked are all the little things these groups were able to do before dropping malware, shutting down networks, extorting ransoms, and stealing data.This is where taking the time to address those insecure connection points, update login credentials or patch zero and one-day vulnerabilities continue to be essential in the fight to safeguard operational technology and the industrial control system. But, the reasons these problems remain is that the solution is never as simple as it sounds. So, hopefully our collection of experts for this episode can help show you the way.As a go-to podcast for our listeners, we want to help you align your brand with our expertise.

De stad Nijmegen is in beweging—letterlijk en figuurlijk. De verlaging van de maximumsnelheid van 50 naar 30 km/u zorgt voor felle discussies. Wat betekent deze maatregel voor de veiligheid, de doorstroming en de leefbaarheid van de stad? In deze aflevering gaat Raymond Janssen in gesprek met Mark Maartens, docent verkeerskunde, over de achtergronden en gevolgen van dit beleid.Wat kun je verwachten?Waarom de overgang naar 30 km/u volgens verkeerskundigen een goede zet is—maar alleen als het goed wordt uitgevoerd.Hoe een eenvoudigere herinrichting van wegen al invloed heeft op rijgedrag.De rol van flexibele flitspalen (flexflitsers) en waarom handhaving een heet hangijzer blijft.De politieke spanningen rondom de invoering en waarom Nijmegen voor een gefaseerde aanpak kiest.Historische inzichten van Rob Jaspers over werkloosheid in Nijmegen en wat dat ons leert over de stad van de toekomst.

The continued evolution of the CyberAv3ngers hacking group and its IIoT-focused malware.We talk a lot about change on Security Breach. Some of it's good and obviously some of it makes us want to tear our hair out. Well, this episode, surprisingly, should go easy on the scalp, even though it will focus on the IOCONTROL malware strand recently detected by Noam Moshe and Claroty's Team82. The malware is described as a custom-built IoT/OT strand created by the Iran-based hacktivist group, the CyberAv3ngers. The malware targeted OT/IoT devices in Israel and the U.S. Moshe's team detected the malware being used to attack IoT and SCADA/OT devices of various types including IP cameras, routers, PLCs, HMIs and firewalls. Typically, this is the part of the story that takes us down a dark and frustrating road, but as you'll hear, that's not necessarily the case this time.For more information on Team82's findings on IOCONTROL, click here.Also, just a bit of housekeeping – we're switching the frequency of Security Breach from weekly to bi-weekly. This change will allow me to spend more time on each episode, which will translate to greater depth and expanded coverage on all the pressing topics of industrial cybersecurity. And remember, this is your podcast – let me know your thoughts and feelings on the change and anything else you'd like to see on the show.As a go-to podcast for our listeners, we want to help you align your brand with our expertise.

Ienākumu nevienlīdzība Latvijā ir viena no izteiktākajām Eiropas Savienībā. Par to runā sen, tiek meklēti risinājumi, bet uzlabojumu īpaši nav. Mūsu valstī lielākā daļa resursu atrodas vien desmitās daļas mājsaimniecību rokās. Krustpunktā pievēršamies atsevišķiem aspektiem, kas varētu ietekmēt ienākumu nevienlīdzību ilgtermiņā, proti, mantojuma un arī dāvinājuma nodokļiem. Diskutē Latvijas Universitātes Filozofijas un socioloģijas institūta vadošais pētnieks Andris Saulītis, Finanšu ministrijas parlamentārā sekretāre Karīna Ploka, bijušais Latvijas Bankas prezidents Mārtiņš Kazāks un Saeimas deputāts, Apvienotā saraksta frakcijas vadītājs Edgars Tavars. Diskutēt par šiem jautājumiem rosināja pētnieka Andra Saulīša nesen publicētais raksts, kurā viņš arī norādīja, ka mantojuma un dāvinājuma nodokļa neesamība ir faktors, kas dod lielas priekšrocības 90. gadu veiksminieku un ne vienmēr godīgi iegūta kapitāla mantiniekiem un ar laiku šīs nevienlīdzīgo iespēju šķēres plešas arvien platākas. Vai nodokļu politikas maiņa šai jomā ko dotu? Varbūt ir citas idejas, kā ietekmēt taisnīgāku kapitāla sadali?

Winston Churchill famously stated that, “Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” His concerns about applying lessons learned to post WWII foreign policy initiatives rings just as true in the current cybersecurity climate. So, in an effort to ensure we repeat as few of 2024's mistakes in 2025, we're going to take a look at some of the industrial sector's biggest exploits, and offer solutions and strategies in our ever-raging combat with the Black Hats. Watch/listen as we cover:A unique supply chain hack that came up during our conversation with Theo Zafirakos, a Cyber Risk and Information Security Expert at Fortra.The fall of 2024 brought security compromises to the front door of a number of prominent industrial enterprises, including Halliburton.In early August millions were impacted when National Public Data, a major data broker that performs background checks, reported that 2.9 billion personal records from over a million individuals in the U.S., the U.K. and Canada were accessed.Ford Motor Company was also a target, with a data breach that saw hacking groups steal 44,000 records containing personal and product information.Anna Wells, executive editor of Manufacturing.net and Manufacturing Business Technology, brought us coverage of a hack that has crippled a global beverage maker.We close out with a story from early this year describing how some of the basic tools found throughout a manufacturing plant can become pathways for the innovative hacker.As a go-to podcast for our listeners, we want to help you align your brand with our expertise.

As we begin to close out 2024 and look ahead to 2025, I couldn't resist the urge to revisit some of my favorite guests from the last couple of months.While I'm grateful for everyone we've had on the show, and all the support we continue to receive from the industrial cybersecurity community, I felt these comments were worth another listen, with special focus being given to a handful of the most critical issues confronting our OT environments. First, we hear from Jon Taylor (1:16) at Versa, as he discusses a unique approach to patching and secure-by-design strategies that involve the development embedded micro-segmentation approaches. Next, we'll hear from Cloud Range's Tom Marsland (11:18)  as he discusses the continued challenges presented by data silos, and innovative ways to address the shortage of cybersecurity specialists. Then we'll turn to Baker Tilly's Jeff Krull (19:42) as he reports on ransomware gangs and their combination of new and old tactics. And we'll finish up with cybersecurity researcher Jeremiah Fowler (29:40) as he discusses some of the ongoing challenges about addressing persistent vulnerabilities.As a go-to podcast for our listeners, we want to help you align your brand with our expertise.

According to Fortinet's 2024 State of Operational Technology and Cybersecurity Report, 43 percent of those surveyed reported a loss of business critical data or intellectual property so far in 2024– a number this is up nearly 10 percent from last year. And we all know what happens with this hijacked data. Per the World Economic Forum's May 2024 white paper, the number of ransomware attacks on industrial infrastructure doubled in 2023, boosting ransomware to the leading concern for manufacturers, with 40 percent citing it as their top issue. While that may not surprise you, this might - due to the many challenges we've discussed here on Security Breach, the industrial sector now accounts for 71 percent of all ransomware attacks. Our data is valuable and the hackers know it.To offer some perspective on protecting this data, we sat down with Karthik Krishnan, CEO of Concentric.ai – a leading provider of data security posture management solutions. Watch/listen as he provides insight on:Prioritizing and limiting data access to lessen the blast radius.How data, especially customer data, is essentially the "new oil."Reversing your mindset to think about "data out" instead of "user in".The generative AI advancements that continue to be made, and how they're producing more complex phishing and ransomware attacks.  Why it has become easier for hackers to get a foothold on your network.The best ways to shore up your weakest security link - employees.How it all starts with data discovery and visualization, then prioritization.A look at the money involved with remediation and response costs versus proper planning and defense prep.As a go-to podcast for our listeners, we want to help you align your brand with our expertise.

In aflevering 183 van Ien, de podcast spreekt presentator Raymond Janssen met Abdulahi Hussen, raadslid voor GroenLinks Nijmegen. Hussen deelt zijn inzichten over het armoedebeleid van Nijmegen, met specifieke aandacht voor de geplande invoering van 30 km/u op bepaalde wegen, en hoe hij als politicus en vader kijkt naar veiligheid en stadsontwikkeling. Ook bespreekt Hussen zijn persoonlijke achtergrond als Nederlander met een Somalische afkomst en hoe die ervaring zijn visie op politiek en maatschappij heeft gevormd. Het gesprek raakt aan de kernvraag: hoe creëren we een eerlijker sociaal systeem, met minder bureaucratie en meer menselijkheid? Onderwerpen die aan bod komen: • De impact van verkeersmaatregelen op veiligheid en stedelijke groei. • Hussen's identiteit als wereldburger: een balans tussen Nederlandse directheid en Somalische roots. • Zijn kritiek op het huidige armoedebeleid en ideeën voor een meer toekomstgerichte aanpak.

Nav jāgaida īpaša diena, vai īpašs laiks, lai darītu labu. Arī tad, ja mums ir aizņemta un steidzīga dzīve, ir iespējams atrast laiku, lai palīdzētu kādam, kam tas nepieciešams visvairāk. Par to, kā iesaistīties labo darbu darīšanā, runājam raidījumā Kā labāk dzīvot. Sarunājas labdarības organizācijas "Palīdzēsim.lv" vadītāja Ilze Skuja, "Palīdzēsim.lv" brīvprātīgās Gunita Mežniece un Diāna Macuka. "Labie darbi bieži vien ir vērtīgāki pašam, ne tam, kurš saņem, jo vērtībās, pozitīvās emocijas, iedvesma ir neatsverams ieguvums," vērtē Ilze Skuja. Gunita Mežniece stāsta, ka viņai bērni izauguši un domājusi par tālāko dzīvi, ko varētu darīt labu, kā varētu palīdzēt kādam, jo spēka pietiek. "Ienāca doma - kļūt par brīvprātīgo. Nezinu, ko es tur varēšu piedāvāt. Atvēru internetu, izleca man "Palīdzēsim.lv", saņēmos drosmi, aizgāju un piedāvāju, ja var tā teikt, sevi. Tur man atradās pielietojums," stāsta Gunita Mežniece. "Mēs vadām brīvbrīžus bērniņiem ar īpašām vajadzībām, ar kustību traucējumiem. Tas ir tāds liels prieks, ka tu kaut mirkli vari palīdzēt tām ģimenēm, kas nonākušas tādā situācijā. Tu vienkārši tur esi, tev nav pat prātā doma, ka varētu kaut ko gribēt pretī. Tu vienkārši tur esi un palīdzi. Tā ir maza daļiņa, ko varam dot kā brīvprātīgie, kaut vai atvieglot uz stundu, divām, trim to ģimeņu ikdienu." Raidījuma viešņas mudina šaubīgos pamēģināt, sākt ar mazumiņu, nebaidīties, iet un palīdzēt, nevis šaubīties. Tas arī pašam palīdzības sniedzējam liek palikt empātiskākam, iejūtīgākam.   Ierakstā stāsts par Palsas pamatskolu, kas ir viens no punktiem, kurš atzīmēts labo darbu kartē, jo skolēni kopā ar skolotājām sagrābuši lapas un sakopuši sešu Brīvības cīņās kritušo atdusas vietu Smiltenes novadā, netālu no Palsmanes. Vēl stāsts par to, kādus labos darbus dara Smiltenes pirmsskolas iestādes "Pīlādzītis" audzēkņi un viņu skolotājas.

Today I talk to creators and filmmakers Ien Chi and Jon Bregel about Jon's recent documentary, the short film "I Do" which tells the grief story of a married man, from diagnosis, through loss, to grieve and finding life after death. Ien and Jon share their own experiences with creating and producing the movie, and how this exploration of grief in a creative format impacted their own perspective on grief. The both share the way their perspectives on life and death, and spirituality, and their personal journeys, were impacted with this encounter with grief, and together we discuss how powerful grief can be, and how it's power can be used for great good and healing, but can also abused and manipulated.  _______ You can find out more information about the short fulm "I Do" and how to watch it here.

I recently had a great interview with Brenna TwoBears from the Indigenous Environmental Network, but I couldn't fit our whole conversation into our last full episode. Brenna came on to talk about IEN's ongoing fight to shut down the Dakota Access Pipeline, and how you can take action by submitting comments to the army corps of engineers by December 13th.   But we also covered a lot more ground, and I really appreciated what Brenna had to say on the broader context of an indigenous just transition, the proposed Thacker Pass lithium mine, and more!I think anyone who likes this show will too, so I'm putting out an extended version of our conversation.If you like what we're doing here on Coast Range Radio, please help us out by sharing this episode with your friends, and consider leaving us a nice review on whatever podcast app you use.Ps- if you don't know how to do that, feel free to email me at michael@coastrange.org and I'll send you directions.As always you can find all episodes of Coast Range Radio on apple podcasts, spotify, or any other podcast app, and at coastrange.org .And, last plug I promise, it would mean a lot to us at the coast range association for you to become a monthly donor at coastrange.org, or click this donate link.  We are a small outfit, but we're extremely passionate about this work, and your support is critical to our ability to be effective.Research Links/Show Notes:Indigenous Environmental Network: https://www.ienearth.org/IEN's DAPL action alert: https://www.ienearth.org/dapl-deis-public-comment-period-extended/Register for Dec 7th virtual comment writing party: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZYrcuusqjIiHNSQqFH0ID1davrVIBxBkAs1#/registrationFurther reading on DAPL:https://truthout.org/articles/5-years-after-standing-rock-native-tribes-still-fight-dakota-access-pipeline/https://www.npr.org/2023/09/08/1198492185/dakota-access-pipeline-river-crossing-environmental-reviewSupport the showPlease Donate to Help us Keep This Show Free!

Today, we have not one, but two amazing guests talking about two important and timely topics: the Dakota Access Pipeline fight, and the recent Elliot State Forest drama.Bob Sallinger joins to walk me through the bombshell that Oregon State University just dropped on the Elliott State forest process, and why them walking away might actually be good news.But first, we'll hear a short excerpt of my conversation with Brenna TwoBears from the Indigenous Environmental Network about their ongoing fight to shut down the Dakota Access Pipeline, and how you can take action by submitting comments to the army corps of engineers by December 13th.  My conversation with Brenna was really fun and we covered way more ground than I could fit into this episode, so I'm releasing the extended interview as a bonus podcast.  I hope you give that a listen, I think fans of this show will really appreciate the full conversation!Speaking of our podcast feed, we have very few reviews and ratings, and it would mean a lot to me if a few more listeners gave us a rating and review.

Hopefully, you've already heard our last two episodes on the Who Will Own The Forest conference, or maybe you attended the Forests Over Profits protest or counter-conference that We helped organize in response.If not, I would highly encourage you to go back and listen to the episode I did a few weeks back called, “Who Will Own the Forest, with Brenna Bell” so you can have some context for this episode.  You can also go to forestsoverprofits.org to learn more.As everyone who attended our counter-conference can attest, it was a packed day of inspiring and enraging presentations, and I am working to get as many of them as possible uploaded as bonus episodes in the coming weeks.  This episode features one of my favorites, a panel presentation with Brenna TwoBear and Thomas Joseph of the Indigenous Environmental Network Panel (IEN).  They were also joined by IEN interns Elisa Soto-Danseco and Joshua Witchger, who actually went inside the Who Will Own The Forest Conference and gave a reportback on what they saw from the inside.See Below for links and further reading, and learn more about the Indigenous Environmental Network at IENearth.org.  Research Links/Show Notes:CRR #65: Who Will Own The Forest, with Brenna Bell:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/who-will-own-the-forest-with-brenna-bell/id1510457358?i=1000627598597https://coastrange.org/Forestsoverprofits.orgIndigenous Environmental Networkhttps://www.ienearth.org/https://www.puebloactionalliance.org/no-false-solutionshttps://www.ienearth.org/nature-based-solutions/Support the showPlease Donate to Help us Keep This Show Free!
