Hackers are having increasing success penetrating the operating technology and industrial control systems underpinning data centers, utilities, manufacturing plants. As organizations incorporate smart devices, connect to the Internet of Things, and utilize the cloud to optimize performance, new attack vectors – and cyber vulnerabilities – are created. Skilled cybercriminals only need to find a single […]

The inconvenient truth is that our current cybersecurity tools and methods are not a match for today’s sophisticated attackers who will target any exposed surface looking for vulnerabilities. Attackers need to only succeed once, while defenders must successfully protect their systems every time against all possible threats. Even the most security-conscious organizations aren’t immune to […]
