🔍 73% of OT devices are unmanaged. That’s not just a statistic, it’s an open door for cybercriminals targeting #manufacturing. Bill Rucker, President of Trustwave Government Solutions, joined the #CyberFocus podcast with the McCrary Institute for Cyber & Critical Infrastructure Security to break down the evolving risks in IT/OT environments. From vulnerable networked cameras to full-scale operational disruptions, attackers are finding new footholds where security gaps persist. 🔓 #Manufacturers can’t afford to overlook these threats. 🎧 Listen in to hear how organizations can strengthen their defenses.

Attackers don’t need sophisticated hacks when #manufacturing organizations are leaving their doors wide open. . . The manufacturing sector is under siege and organizations are making themselves easy targets. 🔓 Easy entry to #ERP, #supplychain systems, and #OT networks are exposing thousands of vulnerabilities 💀 #DarkWeb marketplaces are selling stolen credentials for factory systems that bypass #MFA and enable full account takeovers 🛠️ Industrial Control Systems (#ICS) are being breached with new #malware, leading to real-world safety disruptions Suffice it to say, #cybercriminals are cashing in on manufacturing’s security blind spots.

Defensive security builds walls. Offensive security finds the cracks. 🔍 By combining both, organizations can uncover hidden weaknesses, see what attackers see, and fortify their defenses where it matters most. Are you looking at your security from both perspectives? 🎭 #offensivesecurity #defensivesecurity #cybersecurity

Big news! Trustwave has officially achieved FedRAMP authorization, reinforcing our commitment to securing federal agencies, the defense industrial base, and organizations with CMMC requirements. In a Q&A with TGS President Bill Rucker, we dive into what this means for government cybersecurity, how it streamlines cloud adoption, and why this achievement sets Trustwave apart.

Manufacturers are bolting #IoT, #cloud, and #AI onto 40-year-old #PLCs . . . and attackers are having a field day. Let’s break it down: ⚡ IT/OT convergence = new attack pathways & old security debt 🔍 73% of OT devices are unmanaged (no logs, no monitoring, no clue when they’re compromised) 📡 Attackers are laterally moving from IT to OT, turning simple breaches into industrial sabotage The latest research from Trustwave #SpiderLabs breaks down how attackers are taking over industrial networks before defenders even know they’re inside.

The UK’s #energy sector is running on legacy tech while #cyber threats are evolving at warp speed. Ed Williams warns: AI-driven threats aren’t coming, they’re already here. 💾 Outdated infrastructure? #Cybercriminals love it. 🤖 #AI-powered attacks? They don’t take weekends off. ⚖️ National security at stake? You bet. It’s time to rethink resilience before the lights go out. 🔌💥 Check out Ed Williams' take in TechRadar Pro on fortifying critical energy systems in an AI-driven world: https://hubs.ly/Q039R9cr0

To stop attackers, you have to think like one. 🧠 Offensive Security isn't about guessing what threats might look like, it’s about mimicking real adversaries, probing for weaknesses, and understanding exactly where defenses break down. Are you testing your security the way attackers will? 🤔

#Cybercriminals are exploiting #manufacturing’s weak spots, from outdated systems to exposed supply chains and unpatched vulnerabilities. 🎯 🔓 Over 3,500 critical flaws give attackers plenty of ways in. 🗝️ #Heartbleed and #EternalBlue are still opening doors years later. 💻 #Ransomware and #OT attacks are hitting harder than ever. Factories aren’t just making products, they’re making themselves easy targets. Time to reinforce defenses. https://hubs.ly/Q039Q0gc0

Russian state-backed #cyber groups are shifting tactics, using private contractors and cybercriminal proxies to obscure their tracks. Trustwave #SpiderLabs continues to unpack how these evolving attribution tactics make tracking them harder than ever in part 4 of their series on cyber warfare: https://lnkd.in/gJ_UwzEE

Manufacturing's #cyber risks are skyrocketing. 🚀 🌐 4,370 unique vulnerabilities are exposed online (of which, 3,843 are critical) 📉 The IT/OT convergence is expanding attack surfaces fast As Trustwave's Ed Williams highlights on page 44 of Logistics Manager Magazine's new edition, security must evolve with technology. Safeguarding manufacturing operations requires proactive defense, not reactive fixes. Check out additional, actionable insights to protect your manufacturing organization: https://hubs.ly/Q039xhjR0
