Last month, the US government’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) released two significant warnings. The first of these detailed how APT Cyber Tools were reported to be targeting ICS/SCADA Devices, while the second warned of a specific type of Malware – namely, Pipedream – aimed at Industrial Control Systems.

These kinds of ominous directives from CISA relate directly to a recent Whitepaper from Cerberus Sentinel regarding the Water Sector, and Tackling IT-Security Fundamentals. The water sector has long been a target for hackers hoping to take advantage of the rapid digital transformation it has undertaken, with the water supply of Oldsmar in Florida suffering an attempted compromise from a hacker last year. With specific malwares and APT groups’ being mentioned by Federal agencies as real, credible and potentially nation-state tied threats to ICS, including the water sector, the white paper could not be more timely.

Vulnerabilities found in widely-used network switches could allow attackers to bypass security features such as network segmentation to gain access to critical systems

 

PALO ALTO, Calif.: Armis, the leading unified asset visibility and security platform, today announced the disclosure of five critical vulnerabilities, known as TLStorm 2.0, in the implementation of TLS communications in multiple models of network switches. The vulnerabilities stem from a similar design flaw identified in the TLStorm vulnerabilities (discovered earlier this year by Armis), expanding the reach of TLStorm to millions of additional enterprise-grade network infrastructure devices.

This flag shall be a symbol of their doggedness, resilience, and determination to conquer the present evil with love, for perfect love casteth out all fears, even in these perilous times. And Ukrainians shall prevail as all will soon be over. Glory to Ukraine!

Junior Lucifer, Patriarch Kirill, the leader of Russia’s Political Church…in every respect, complicit in the ongoing barbarity and genocide in Ukraine, being carried out by vampiric Vladimir Putin and his very ferocious beasts/savage wolves. But what would Jesus do at a time like this?

Putin, the Anti-Christ. To hell with your oil, Vlad! Watch all the world turns to the P4:19 oil which never goes dry nor is subject to diminishing returns. It is common knowledge that hunters who have lost their C sense, do often shoot themselves in the foot!

 

The return of ‘Might is Right”, but is the world not yet tired of this Putintainment to respond in the language he understands? Asks JOHN ODEY ADUMA.
