Podcast: Cyber Security Weekly Podcast (LS 38 · TOP 2% what is this?)Episode: Episode 414 - Winning the OT Security BattlePub date: 2024-09-24We sat down with Tim Conway and Robert Lee, two leading cybersecurity experts, to discuss pressing issues in OT cybersecurity.CrowdStrike Lessons LearnedTim and Robert began by examining the CrowdStrike incident from July 2024. They highlighted the dangers of over-relying on trusted technology without sufficient testing and verification, and the importance of integrating resilience into systems and avoiding a one-size-fits-all security approach.Cyber Threat LandscapeRobert discussed the rise of sophisticated malware like Fuxnet, Frostygoop and Pipe Dream, designed to target OT systems. Fuxnet was a highly targeted attack aimed at disrupting critical infrastructure in Russia, while Frostygop used similar techniques against Ukraine. In contrast, Pipe Dream serves as a more versatile attack framework applicable to various OT systems. He underscored an important lesson: even if specific malware isn't reused, studying its tactics can improve our prevention, detection, and response strategies. The key takeaway: threats to OT environments are growing, with increasingly targeted efforts from a range of actors.Critical Control – ICS Network VisibilityTim and Robert addressed the challenges of gaining visibility into OT devices. Tim noted that OT environments are diverse and require more than a one-size-fits-all approach. Each environment has unique characteristics that must be considered. While attackers exploit both commonalities and specific features, defenders must balance the need for visibility with the risk of disrupting operations. Legacy systems without modern security features further complicate these efforts. Despite historical challenges in visibility due to limited capabilities and resistance to change, recent technological advances have improved the situation. However, new technologies, such as encryption, introduce additional complexities. A balanced approach, using critical controls as a framework, is essential for prioritizing security efforts and adapting to evolving needs.Critical Control – Incident Response PlanTim and Robert highlighted that many organizations lack specific incident response plans for OT, relying instead on general IT plans. Backup plans for power outages often do not address cyber attack scenarios. Effective OT incident response requires a tailored plan that includes data collection, safety procedures, and appropriate tools. In addition, maturity in incident response involves having a detailed, operationally integrated plan that addresses various scenarios, including handling outages and restoring systems without SCADA support. OT and IT ConvergenceTim and Robert discussed several crucial aspects of OT security. They noted that the increasing interconnection between IT and OT systems has elevated the risk of attacks transitioning from IT to OT environments. Additionally, remote access, often used for vendor support, presents a significant security threat.They emphasized the distinct characteristics of OT systems, which necessitate specialized security approaches. Treating OT and IT as identical can lead to dangerous oversimplifications and vulnerabilities. Therefore, security measures must be tailored to the specific needs of OT environments, considering their safety, physical constraints, and unique risks.Tim and Robert also touched on cyber-informed engineering. Key takeaways include recognizing common attack vectors from IT systems, implementing distinct security strategies for OT, and avoiding the assumption that OT and IT are the same. Tailoring security measures to the specific needs and constraints of OT environments is essential for effective protection.Celebrating WinsFinally, Tim and Robert highlighted the importance of celebrating cybersecurity successes, such as defending against VOLTZITE. Recognizing and celebrating these victories can boost morale and encourage teams to continue their efforts. Tim Conway, Senior Instructor, https://www.sans.org/profiles/tim-conway/Tim serves as the Technical Director of ICS and SCADA programs at SANS, and he is responsible for developing, reviewing, and implementing technical components of the SANS ICS and SCADA product offerings.

One of the most challenging things in the ‘food and beverage technology' umbrella is the different terminology we use to define tech and the different segments within our industry. How do you define SMB vs. Enterprise? Casual vs. Full Service? What are the functions, features and applications within back-office technologies? As you seek or sell technology, understanding these definitions is key to making choices. Accelerate host Rob Grimes says emerging technology creates further complexity. “Operations Technology, Infrastructure, Food Technology, Equipment Technology, and Experiential Technology are 5 major areas to focus on when considering the future.” If you want to hear Rob's breakdown of some of these terms within the industry and find out what questions to ask when talking about technology, tune in to this episode of Accelerate.

Podcast: Cyber Security Weekly Podcast (LS 38 · TOP 2% what is this?)Episode: Episode 341 - Cyber threats and cyber-physical systems, and impacts for APACPub date: 2022-11-27Tim serves as the Technical Director - ICS and SCADA programs at SANS, and is responsible for developing, reviewing, and implementing technical components of the SANS ICS and SCADA product offerings. Additionally, performing contract and consulting work in the areas of ICS cybersecurity with a focus on energy environments. A recognized leader in CIP operations, he formerly served as the Director of CIP (Critical Infrastructure Protection) Compliance and Operations Technology at Northern Indiana Public Service Company (NIPSCO) and was responsible for Operations Technology, NERC CIP Compliance, and the NERC training environments for the operations departments within NIPSCO Electric. Recognizing the need for ICS-focused cyber security training throughout critical infrastructure environments and an increased need for NERC CIP hands-on training, Tim authored and instructs the ICS curriculum's newest course ICS456 - Essentials for NERC Critical Infrastructure Protection. Outside of SANS, Tim continues to perform contract and consulting work in the areas of ICS cyber security with a focus on the energy sector. Before accepting the opportunity to join SANS, Tim enjoyed a 15-year career with NIPSCO (Northern Indiana Public Service Company) - one of Indiana's largest natural gas and electric companies in the state, where he held management and leadership positions as well as EMS Computer Systems Engineer responsibilities over the control system servers and the supporting network infrastructure.  During his career, Tim has served as the Chair of the RFC CIPC, Chair of the NERC CIP Interpretation Drafting Team, Chair of the NERC CIPC GridEx Working Group, and Chair of the NBISE Smart Grid Cyber Security panel. In this interview held on-site at the SANS ICS APAC Summit and Training 2022, Tim shares his insights on the developments in ICS (Industrial Control Systems). He starts by explaining the evolution of the term “ICS” into “cyber-physical” – from “data-at-rest, data-in-use, data-in-motion” perspective to one where “data that does something, data that means something,” or in other words, data that has a “kinetic component,” a “physics component.”   Viewed this way, cyber-physical systems could be large scale, like SCADA covering multiple states, or could be on a plant floor distributed control system, could be individual PLCs, or the IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) which are “using small edge devices to control parts of buildings, or SMART cities or transportation.” Tim also gives an update on the threat landscape in cyber-physical systems and how intellectual property/data theft has evolved to process manipulation. The latest is the recently discovered malware – “Pipedream,” where the modularity of the malware framework is a “force multiplier.” By piecing different malicious components, he explains that threat actors can achieve their goals without knowing their specific environments – and also across multiple sectors. Besides the evolving threat landscape, Tim also touches on varied levels of digital adoption in the cyber-physical environment across sectors means that the SANS courses are necessarily developed for professionals coming from a variety of experiences and cover legacy, existing, and new environments. Depending on the complexities of the infrastructure specific to the country, Tim also shares his perspectives on differing priorities and approaches when it comes to cyber protection. Recorded on 21st November 2022, 3pm, Grand Copthorne Hotel, Singapore.The podcast and artwork embedded on this page are from MySecurity Media, which is the property of its owner and not affiliated with or endorsed by Listen Notes, Inc.

Key Takeaways: Supply Chain: Cash or Trash Seth Page is the COO of ThroughPut.ai, an artificial intelligence (AI) supply chain pioneer that enables companies to detect, prioritize and alleviate dynamic operational bottlenecks in real-time. In the podcast interview, Joe and Seth discuss the enormous waste in supply chains. While supply chains create all the wonderful goods and services we enjoy, they also produce a lot of waste. Approximately one-third of supply chain output is waste – it adds no value for anyone. The waste is horrible for bottom lines and the environment. According to Boston Consulting Group's recent report, 80% of greenhouse gases are created by supply chains so to improve sustainability and profitability, companies must address the waste in the supply chain. The waste occurs because supply chain data is in separate silos and decisions are made to optimize locally – not globally. In other words, each player in the supply chain makes a rational decision based on the information that they have. While that decision might be good for their organization, it might be a bad for the end-to-end supply chain. Supply chain practitioners make decisions using faulty forecasts, old assumptions, and outdated tools. ThroughPut provides an integrated view of company-wide operations by pulling data from all of your disparate systems. Throughput can identify and manage constraints to free cash flow, while meeting revenue targets with output. To make better decisions, supply chain practitioners need demand sensing with real-time intelligence that can be used to create better demand forecasts. With demand sensing, companies can easily predict near-future demand patterns to streamline the flow of materials, processes, output, and free cash flow across your integrated supply chain. Seth and the team at ThroughPut unlock operations agility and efficiency, to meet unpredictable customer demands, while creating uninterrupted flow of materials through supply chain networks. This approach minimizes waste and maximizes profitability.

The worlds of safety and cybersecurity have always been closely related. The emergence of TRISIS/TRITON malware that was specifically directed at process safety systems cast a spotlight on this topic two years ago, but the areas of convergence go way beyond the world of specialized process safety systems to include many other areas of operations technology in the world of industry and critical infrastructure. Safety is a major concern in the design of every OT system and today this needs to consider cybersecurity. Redundancy and protective devices used to address conventional risks are already being targeted by cyber-attacks. Managing these additional safety risks requires close coordination between safety and cybersecurity efforts. In this podcast we bring together some of the best minds in the industry that have experience in both safety and cybersecurity to discuss some of the key issues. Listen to Eric Cosman, current president of ISA and co-chair of the ISA/IEC 62443 standards committee (and ARC contributing analyst), Isiah Jones of Jacobs Engineering, and well-known industry consultant Hal Thomas.
