#CIRCIA starts with a scope question to see if the rule even applies to your org. This week we go through the proposed covered entity criteria, including SBA size standards & sector-based triggers. emberot.com/resources/blog/c… #OTsecurity #ICSsecurity

Siemens S7 detection needs more than a rule that recognizes protocol traffic. @CSecDaemon looks at S7comm production traffic in light of AA26-231A & why source, controller, timing, role, authorization, & baseline context matter. emberot.com/resources/blog/s… #OTsecurity #ICSsecurity

There may be a path out of your OT network that nobody wrote down. A vendor tunnel. A cellular gateway. A radio link. An old modem, still getting billed. Let's talk about how to find undocumented OT external connections. emberot.com/resources/blog/o… #OTsecurity #ICSsecurity

A security assessment fills the report, but the work after the assessment builds the program. @CSecDaemon writes about why OT findings need ownership, prioritization, operational buy-in, and controls that teams can actually sustain. emberot.com/resources/blog/s… #OTsecurity #ICS

A #CVSS score tells you how severe a vuln looks on paper. Context (+ a seasoned operator) tells you whether it's reachable, patchable, process-adjacent, vendor-managed, segmented, or realistic to fix this week. From @CSecDaemon: emberot.com/resources/blog/o… #OTsecurity #ICSsecurity

CIP-015 compliance doesn't have to start with a 40-site rollout. In @Ember_OT's latest article, @CSecDaemon shares a realistic 90-day path for utilities that need INSM, real visibility, and budget discipline. emberot.com/resources/blog/c… #OTsecurity #CIP015 #ICSsecurity

The future OT analyst needs more than cyber fundamentals. They need OT/ICS depth, protocol fluency, & enough AI literacy to challenge model output instead of trusting it blindly. New article by @CSecDaemon on why the cross-disciplinary OT analyst wins: emberot.com/resources/blog/o…

The most dangerous AI take in cybersecurity right now isn't "AI will replace us." It's "AI will up-skill us." A thread on what most leaders are missing about AI in cyber.

The pitch: AI will up-skill your team. Juniors will operate like seniors. The reality: AI gives juniors access to senior-shaped output. Not the same thing. The senior can interrogate the output. The junior often can't yet.

Foundations first. AI second. The order matters more than people realize. Without the craft, AI is a confidence amplifier with no validation layer underneath. With the craft, it's a real multiplier. Full article here: linkedin.com/pulse/most-dang… #cybersecurity #AI

CIP-015 is not a loot drop. A matrix full of green checkmarks won’t help if you’re still blind at Levels 1 and 2. The real question: if an attacker were already inside your ESP, would you know? I wrote about the compliance trap here:emberot.com/resources/blog/c…
CIP-015 is not a loot drop. Checking every R1 through R3 box does not guarantee real detection. You can be compliant on paper and still stay blind where it counts. @CSecDaemon on alert floods, tool mismatch, and visibility gaps at Levels 1 and 2: emberot.com/resources/blog/c…

When remote OT environments span hundreds (or thousands) of miles, teams need usable data they can act on. Better visibility helps operators reduce blind spots, improve detection, & support safer, more reliable operations. New article from @CSecDaemon emberot.com/resources/blog/p…

#BSidesICS & #S4x26 week felt like the right time to share this... I wrote a bit of a manifesto about how I think OT security should be practiced, focusing on one idea: “No Noise. Just Signal.” Clear thinking. Respect for operations. Awareness of real-world impact.🤘🔥
