4 nightmares of the ICT security manager
- attacks on Industrial Control and remote control systems in Utilities are becoming more and more current. Here we list four common situations that create security vulnerabilities in ICS systems and networks (and how you can avoid them). Even in recent blockbuster movies we have seen malicious cyberattacks devastating critical infrastructure. While the 'bad guys' try to upload viruses to the 'network' in an attempt to take over the world, the 'heroes' are furiously typing on their keyboards to regain control of the 'mainframes'. These "accidents" appear to be just imaginary entertainment and highly unlikely to occur, but once the film ends they leave us wondering: “What could actually happen?” Sadly, not only could it happen, it's happening more and more: widely publicized cyber security attacks like Stuxnet and Flame have proved it. Stuxnet: a worm that got out of control in the summer of 2012 and was used to attack Iranian nuclear facilities, just like in a movie plot. Still: Flame, a form of cyber-espionage Discovered in 2012, it attacked computers running Microsoft Windows that could record audio, images, and keyboard activity and network traffic. Flame is considered one of the "most complex malware ever found". And yet another attack, the one with “Duque” , literally wiped out 30.000 computers of the Saudi Aramco oil company. What to do then? here they are 4 Milestones of Cyber Security
