Zero Trust – A Virtual Air Gap for OT Security

Air-gapping computer and operational technology (OT) networks is a long-established method of protecting sensitive information and reducing the risk of operational disruption. A growing trend has been to provide connectivity from these networks to the Internet for remote monitoring and control, real-time data, data analysis, predictive maintenance, improving inventory and resource management, achieving faster decision-making,…

Modbus Security Issues and How to Mitigate Cyber Risks

Modbus is a commonly used protocol for industrial control systems (ICS), SCADA systems, and operational technology (OT), and is used to establish communication between various devices in a network. Because Modbus-based industrial systems were deployed in isolated (air-gapped) environments, Modbus was designed for reliability, availability, and speed – not security. Therefore, the millions of Modbus…
