Institute for Critical Infrastructure Technology (ICIT)

Earlier today, 13 international cyber agencies and institutions released a new joint publication, defining principles for operational technology (OT) cybersecurity and best practices to mitigate cyber threats. As OT becomes integral to maintaining critical infrastructure and managing essential services like water, energy, and transportation, securing these systems has become more important than ever. 👉 Read the paper on Australian Signals Directorate's website: https://lnkd.in/gnpvGRuJ #criticalinfrastructure #OTcybersecurity #OTsecurity #wholeofnations #cybersupplychain #operationaltechnology #cyberresilience

ICYMI: Last week, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency released its FY2023 risk and vulnerability assessments report in partnership with the U.S. Coast Guard. As part of the assessment, teams emulated China-linked threat groups, like Volt Typhoon, to test the cyber defenses of critical infrastructure. Both groups found they could easily infiltrate networks using some of the most common attack methods available, such as phishing, valid accounts, and default passwords. 📈 Check out the infographic below and find the full analysis report on CISA's website: https://lnkd.in/eZ35FzZa #criticalinfrastructure #vulnerabilitymanagement #cyberthreats #cyberdefense #USinfrastructure #nationalsecurity
