For this episode, instead of tapping into one source for feedback and updates on industrial cybersecurity, we’re going to look at some of the key insights previous guests have offered on the evolving threat landscape – from increased risks emanating from technological integrations and an uptick in automation, to the more traditional adversaries responsible for next-generation malware, ransomware and phishing schemes.
To kick things off, we’ll hear from:
While many of those topics are already at the top of our list of concerns, there are also a number of evolving threats that warrant an uptick in resources – from both a financial and skillset development perspective. We’ll dive into comments from:
- (9:26) Corsha’s Anusha Iyer as she discusses supply chain and dwelling attacks.
- (15:33) Venafi’s Kevin Bocek and his take on embedded software vulnerabilities and how hackers are taking advantage of them.
- (22:18) Baker Tilly’s Jeff Krull offers an update on the evolving complexity of ransomware groups and how they’re targeting the industrial sector.
- (25:20) And finally, let’s wrap up with one of my favorite guests we’ve ever had on Security Breach – researcher Jeremiah Fowler. He’ll offer some insight on a number of unique, embedded threats and some of the lessons he’s learned in tangling with state-sponsored Russian hackers.
