Exploiting Serial-to-Ethernet Converters in Critical Infrastructure
Forescout Vedere Labs uncovers 22 new vulnerabilities from two serial to Ethernet converter makers. See what was discovered and how to mitigate.
Securing operational technology (OT) systems—those systems that monitor and control physical devices, processes, or events 1 —is increasingly a priority. Two trends are driving this. First, the explosion of the Internet of Things (IoT) is expanding the landscape of cyber-accessible and potentially vulnerable devices. Second, traditional information technology (IT) and OT networks are rapidly converging. […]
eyeInspect 4.0 is here. What does this mean for you? We think it will change the game for cybersecurity stakeholders, from CISOs and SOC managers to those out in the field. Here’s why: Connected devices will grow by 900 million this year, with 85% being IoT and OT devices 1. This device explosion is increasing […]
Twitter: @MeetCyberBob Let’s dig into some numbers of a high-profile breach to hit home the real costs of a cyber attack. This calculation can be applied to other breaches as well, so I’m not picking on anyone. Equifax announced on March 1st, 2018 that they had been breached. It is now over a year later, […]

Let’s face it. We all love checklists. I can’t imagine going grocery shopping without one. They provide us with a system for organizing tasks, keeping a structure and reporting on accomplishments. But, when checklists are the sole foundation for implementing a regulatory compliance strategy, they may leave your organization at risk for a cyber breach. […]
At the end of March, the cybersecurity news wires lit up with stories about how Norsk Hydro, a Norwegian-based company with global operations and one of the largest aluminum producers in the world, had become the victim of a cyberattack 1. Norsk Hydro recently stated that the incident will likely cost them up to $52 […]
Twitter: @MeetCyberBob There seems to be an almost symbiotic relationship with technology and the movies. The perfect spark of imagination needed to identify something that SHOULD be made. Being in the device visibility and control market space, watching a movie like Avengers Endgame has my heart pounding. Think of all the new devices that are […]
Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) is a 30-year-old standard for medical imaging exchange and storage that is prevalent in modern inpatient and acute trauma centers like hospitals, where expensive imaging equipment is common. Think of DICOM format like JPEG—it’s how medical images like x-rays are stored digitally. DICOM is at the center of […]
