After the attempted water poisoning cyberattack in Florida, cybersecurity experts are advising IT departments to take action
ALISO VIEJO, Calif., Feb. 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Last week an unidentified attacker gained access to a water treatment plant's network and modified chemical dosages to dangerous levels.
The FBI has issued an alert on Tuesday, raising attention to three security issues that have been seen on the plant's network following last week's hack. In these cases, the FBI recommends a series of basic security best practices as an intermediary way to mitigate threats.
Using Syxsense Secure, you can verify your governance against these FBI recommendations, along with resolving any issues discovered as part of this vulnerability scanning exercise.
Rob Brown, Chief Customer Success Officer at Syxsense said, "Obsolete software or unpatched devices provide one of the most serious concerns to the Security Chiefs of companies worldwide. Many of our customers are saying the unpatched laptop may become the next big weaponized threat. They are using Syxsense Secure with the hyper-automation of Syxsense Cortex to return their users safely to the office or isolate those devices if they are unsafe."
