🔐 Cyberattacks: A Growing Threat to Critical Infrastructure 🔐 In industries like automotive, healthcare, energy, and manufacturing, the risk of cyberattacks is becoming more alarming. Hackers exploit the vulnerabilities in these sectors—often through ransomware and other sophisticated techniques—putting vital systems and operations at risk. As I went through interesting whitepapers I had available; with a help from AI-assisted research, these attacks can have devastating consequences! That’s why now, more than ever, strong cybersecurity measures are essential. One key solution? Zero-trust principles. Combined with tailored cybersecurity tools, companies can better defend their systems and ensure compliance with regulations like NIS2. At TXOne Networks, we offer solutions designed to protect OT environments, helping businesses stay secure and resilient in the face of growing threats. Curious to learn how we do it? Let’s connect! #Cybersecurity #OTsecurity #CriticalInfrastructure #TXOneNetworks #ZeroTrust #NIS2 https://lnkd.in/eTuRnJy5

It was a great week at the Electric Power Supply Association Competitive Power Summit 2024. We had the opportunity to engage in conversations with federal/state regulators, energy suppliers, and industry leaders, all aimed at charting the future course of the US power grid. We discussed the pressing challenges surrounding reliability and security, framing a critical discussion for the journey ahead. The discussions served as a powerful reminder of the vital importance of protecting our critical infrastructure—essential not just for the stability of our energy systems but for the safety, economy, and well-being of our nation. Given these challenges, we must continue prioritizing and investing in cybersecurity measures across all our critical infrastructure. Together, we can create a more secure and resilient infrastructure for future generations. Join us in this mission!

When working on digital innovations it is good to be aware of the effect of changes in expectations and obligations between stakeholders on your design. In our article in the Jan-Feb issue of the IEEE Power and Energy magazine we present a comparison of two different designs of Digital Twin supported voltage control and identified some measures to avoid stranding cyber assets. https://lnkd.in/dEncXH3p Kristian Helmholt Coen van Leeuwen

CIO Ann Dunkin talks FITARA, modernization and the challenge of managing IT in an environment driven by high-performance technology. Institute of Industrial and Systems Engineers, National Society of Professional Engineers, NICET " ...in cybersecurity, I don't have to argue with people about whether we should do something when there's a rule that says we do this. ...we really have to focus on prioritizing those mandates, looking at what's going to mitigate the most risk and making progress to meet the requirements at the same time." https://lnkd.in/ebY8QMdy

🔒🔗 As global technology supply chains become more complex, so does the risk to our energy infrastructure and systems. To address this risk, CESER is leveraging the testing and analysis capabilities of DOE’s National Laboratories in the Cyber Testing for Resilient Industrial Control Systems (CyTRICS) program to check the security of the hardware, software, and firmware of components used across the energy sector. Through the CyTRICS program, CESER is securing energy – and all it supports that is so vital to our nation – by ensuring the integrity and reliability of critical energy system components nationwide.
