Nexus Podcast: Mike Holcomb on Starting and Succeeding in OT Cybersecurity

Michael Mimoso
Ron Fabela joins the Nexus podcast to discuss his research into low-skilled threat actors targeting operational technology and industrial control systems. Many of these groups operate as hacktivists and carry out less sophisticated defacements and intrusions. While less of a risk, these incidents are still a drain on human resources required to investigate them and decided on mitigation strategies.

Brian Foster, senior advisor for grid security at Southern California Edison, joins the Nexus Podcast to discuss his presentation delivered at the S4 Conference on the risks of a hyperconnected grid. Adding a Wi-Fi connection to vulnerable smart meters that are enrolled by customers on a massive scale may allow attackers able to compromise centralized command and control of these devices to issue commands at scale that could result in catastrophic damage.

Matthew Rogers, ICS Cybersecurity Strategy & R&D Lead at CISA, joins the Nexus Podcast to discuss the agency's and its international partners' release of a procurement guide for operational technology (OT) owners and operators . The guide describes 12 OT cybersecurity elements that buyers should be looking for, and hopefully influencing automation and control system vendors to implement. Rogers hopes this initiative not only gives OT asset owners some agency during procurement, but also to creates a market-influenced demand among leading vendors to integrate these security elements by default into OT products.
