Power generation is a critical sector facing unique cybersecurity challenges. However, as I researched, it became clear that no document existed to bridge the gap between the general, industry-agnostic ISA/IEC 62443 standards and the specific needs of power generation facilities. In response, I decided to write this ebook.
IT teams newly responsible for OT security are often appalled with the results of an initial vulnerability assessment. “Patch everything! Patch it now!” is often the directive issued to engineering teams. The correct response to such a directive is “How likely is that to kill anyone?” Engineering teams cannot proceed with any change to a system until they have a clear understanding of the answer. And the answer is almost never “zero likelihood.”
What happens when we close the loop in mining operations? How can we prevent Internet-exposed services being compromised?
The Mitre CWE – Common Weakness Enumeration is database talks about kinds of problems that can show up in the future – future zero days – rather than CVE that talks about what vulnerabilities were discovered in the past. Susan Farrell walks us through the CWE and how both vendors and owners and operators use it.
When it comes to securing OPC DA, nothing compares to the security that a unidirectional gateway provides.
Upstream Oil & Gas production has a unique range of threats and risks to consider when compared to other industrial operations.
Our checklist infographic takes a dive into what to consider and secure when it comes to Upstream operations.
The Waterfall Unidirectional Security Gateway and how it has been applied at Oil & Gas production sites such as oil fields and offshore platforms.
IT/OT integration introduces threats to reliable operations. Connected networks move both data, malware, and remote-control cyber attacks along their wires and cables. In the Oil & Gas industry, E&P, pipelines, and refineries have found that securing IT/OT connections involves more than just having Enterprise Security telling Engineering what to do and Engineering saying “no” to IT over and over.
Smart meters, smart cities and the IIoT – when thousands of systems of millions of low-power devices need to talk to each other, and talk between systems, managing trust is hard. Dr. Chris Gorog of BlockFrame walks us through the problem and the work BlockFrame and the University of Colorado have been doing to solve the problem.
Introducing Waterfall Central: Come for simple remote monitoring of multiple devices, stay for operational awareness.
