What should decision-makers focus on in order to allocate resources effectively and address the most pressing cyber threats? Rees Machtemes covers this and more in this edition of my newsletter - OT Security Spotlight

62443 Certification covers 3 areas: 1. The product development process 2. An actual product's resistance to attacks 3. The security level of complete systems In my new eBook we look at what these certifications mean and how they should be applied to power generation ➡️ https://bit.ly/3ZL3viR

I recently published an article in North American Mining magazine. Mining machinery is increasingly automated; simple pick-up trucks contain over 300 CPUs each, and more critical equipment is heavily instrumented. The software in these CPUs is the root of the cybersecurity problem: all software contains defects, and some defects are security vulnerabilities. How can mines protect themselves? This is the question I look at in the article. Feel free to download it below. Thank you to North American Mining Magazine for sharing my work.

As 2024 winds down, let’s wrap up and discuss the year’s most important cyber incidents that targeted physical operations – in both critical infrastructure and heavy industry

Today is your last chance to get the an Amazon Kindle version of my book Engineering-Grade OT Security ($0 purchase) Waterfall Security Solutions still gives away paperback versions here ➡️ https://lnkd.in/gDepe4nQ But we are not able to ship to all countries. I hope that the free Kindle version can reach some of the countries we cannot currently serve with hard copies. (check you "buy" the free copy on the correct amazon store to ensure compatibility with your device) As always, feedback is welcome and I hope you find the material useful.

I was asked by Andrew Ginter and the Waterfall team to comment on a topic that I love discussing, CIE! Cyber-Informed Engineering emphasizes collaboration across engineering, IT, and cybersecurity, fostering a unified approach to protecting critical infrastructure. By integrating cybersecurity into engineering practices and involving all stakeholders, we can build more resilient systems and tackle risks more effectively. Thanks to Andrew Ginter, Marcus H. Sachs, P.E. and Sarah Fluchs for their valuable insights in this ongoing conversation. Check out Waterfall Security Solutions' full blog to learn more about how CIE is reshaping OT security ➡️ https://lnkd.in/gcs-csXc? #CIE #CyberInformedEngineering #Cyber #CyberSecurity #Blog #OT #OTCyber

I recently had the opportunity to ask experts Marcus H. Sachs, P.E. from The Center for Internet Security, Sarah Fluchs from admeritia GmbH, and Aaron C. Crow from MorganFranklin Consulting, about their experience with the new Cyber-Informed Engineering (CIE) initiative. For anyone not familiar with the initiative, CIE positions OT security as “a coin with two sides.” One side is cybersecurity – teach engineering teams about cyber threats, cybersecurity mitigations, and the limitations and scope of each kind of mitigation. The other side is engineering – use engineering design elements like overpressure-relief valves and manual fall-back procedures to address cyber threats as well as more conventional threats to safe, reliable, and efficient physical operations.
