Summary

Hide ▲

CISA, NCSC-UK, and the FBI released new security principles for OT environments to reduce risks from insecure connectivity in systems that support essential services. The guidance is meant to help organizations design and manage secure connectivity from the outset rather than bolting controls on later. It matters because expanded links between industrial and enterprise networks can widen the attack surface for cyber threat actors.

    Industry Or Public Sector Update

    CISA, NCSC-UK, the FBI, and international partners released new security principles for operational technology environments to help organizations design and manage secure connectivity from the outset. The guidance addresses insecure connectivity between industrial systems and enterprise networks and aims to reduce exposure to highly capable and opportunistic adversaries that could cause physical harm, environmental damage, or service disruption.
