Last week, the cyber security focus was on the four natural gas pipeline companies that had their electronic data interfaces, not control systems, hacked. However, from a control and safety system perspective, I believe the more important disclosure was the ICS CERT vulnerability disclosure of the Moxa serial-to-Ethernet convertors (gateways). This is because these types […]

There are two worlds of computer security – high-end systems and then everything else. Both high- and low-end systems typically employ “top-down” defenses to harden their attack surfaces. These are “software-only” security techniques. High-end and specialized systems have the additional protection of “bottom-up” defenses in the form of Hardware Security Modules (HSMs). HSMs sequester secrets […]

Consumers want their work, home and mobile devices to communicate together to provide information that was previously not available from isolated systems. This desire is at the root of the Internet of Things (IoT). The rise of IoT started when consumers began to interconnect devices — ranging from personal computers, smartphones, tablets and wearables, to […]
