The report from the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT), painted security as more of an afterthought for UK businesses, especially when considering the figures about how breaches are handled.
Operational Technology (OT) refers to the hardware and software used to change, monitor, or control the enterprise’s physical devices, processes, and events. Unlike traditional Information Technology (IT) systems, OT systems directly impact the physical world. This unique characteristic of OT brings additional cybersecurity considerations not typically present in conventional IT security architectures. The convergence of […]
Multiactuator technology makes it possible to build HDDs that offer both high capacities and high performance. Seagate has been at the forefront of this effort, followed recently by Western Digital. Their efforts represent only the beginning. If their drives work out, the new technology could change how many enterprise HDDs get built in the foreseeable […]
Many wireless headsets using Bluetooth technology have vulnerabilities that may allow malicious individuals to covertly listen in on private conversations, Tarlogic Security researchers have demonstrated last week at RootedCON in Madrid. “Many of the examples presented during the conference were real tests on devices that attendees – most of them cybersecurity experts – were carrying […]
South St. Paul Public Schools alerted families this week to an ongoing technology disruption that is being investigated. Staff and families were notified Monday of technical difficulties “that may disrupt certain services” like online platforms, emails and other digital services. On Tuesday the district said it had been made aware of “unauthorized activity within our […]
Researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology presented a novel approach to developing programmable logic controller (PLC) malware that proves to be more flexible, resilient, and impactful than current strategies. The scheme allows the malware to stealthily attack the underlying real-world machinery using the legitimate web application program interfaces (APIs) exposed by the admin portal […]
