Claroty Warns of Downtime, 'Devastating' Impact of Vulnerabilities in OT SystemsVulnerabilities in backup power devices and heating and cooling control systems widely used in data centers could enable remote cyberattacks and result in costly downtime and "devastating" operational impact, according to new research from OT security firm Claroty.
An unauthenticated attacker can exploit the command injection vulnerability to gain remote access to robotic systems, causing significant disruption to the environment.
AI-Developed Attack Tooling Generated 'High-Volume, Noisy Workflows'A hacker used Claude and Chat GPT in a cyberattack against a municipal water and sewage utility's operational technology systems in Mexico in January, according to forensic analysis by OT security firm Dragos. The tools "leveraged known techniques and existing vulnerability knowledge."
GrassMarlin leaks sensitive information, provided your targeting phishing skills are sharp enough The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is warning anyone who uses GrassMarlin, a tool developed by the National Security Agency (NSA), about a new vulnerability that attackers can use to snoop on sensitive information.…
Exclusion of OT From AI-Powered Vulnerability Discovery Poses Risks to National SecurityHyperscalers and IT behemoths are on the list, while OT companies are not. The list in question includes the companies that have special access to powerful new models from the two major U.S. frontier AI labs to identify vulnerabilities before hackers get access to similar technology.
The OT devices that translate machine talk into Internet-speak are riddled with vulnerabilities and more frequently targeted for attacks, researchers say.
Forescout's Rik Ferguson on AI-Driven Vulnerability Risks and Visibility GapsAnthropic's Claude Mythos marks a shift in AI-driven vulnerability discovery, but the bigger challenge facing defenders is how to respond. Faster exploit development is exposing gaps in asset visibility, patching and security operations across IT and OT environments, said Forescout's Rik Ferguson.
The US government warns programmable logic controllers are being targeted, and research turns up 179 vulnerable operational technology (OT) devices.
Individual Vulnerability Severity Not Always a Good Measure of Risk ExposureA mainstay of IT security programs across the world, the Common Vulnerability Scoring System, may have terminal flaws when applied to the mirror universe of operational technology - a place where ordinary assumptions about risk don't apply.
ManuSec Canada Speakers From Subaru and Toronto Transit Discuss Cyber ResilienceCanadian manufacturers face rising cyber risk as IT and OT systems converge. Leaders from Subaru Canada and the Toronto Transit Commission outline how ransomware, supply chain exposure and legacy OT vulnerabilities demand stronger resilience, segmentation and incident response readiness.
A study by OMICRON has revealed widespread cybersecurity gaps in the operational technology (OT) networks of substations, power plants, and control centers worldwide. Drawing on data from more than 100 installations, the analysis highlights recurring technical, organizational, and functional issues that leave critical energy infrastructure vulnerable to cyber threats
Trellix Says Email, Identify Failures Are Among Top Vectors in Health CompromisesOf the millions of threats detected in healthcare IT environments last year, email phishing, identity failures and device vulnerabilities were among the top vectors for non-clinical IT compromises - often "cascading" and disrupting patient care, said a new report from security firm Trellix.
Digital Transformation and Legacy OT SystemsManufacturers remain the top ransomware target in Europe, yet 80% still house critical vulnerabilities. As cyber-physical attacks escalate, Manusec Europe 2026 speakers urge organizations to break tool silos, empower responders and secure legacy OT without halting production.
PLCs Increasingly in Hacker Crosshairs, Warns TrellixPatching is still the mortal weaknesses of operational technology environments, warns cybersecurity firm Trellix in a report assessing incidents in critical infrastructure settings during the middle two quarters of this year.
Verve's Rick Kaun on Bridging the Gap Between IT and OT SecurityOperational technology faces security risks that differ sharply from IT, yet both teams must collaborate to secure critical assets, said Rick Kaun, vice president of solutions at Verve. He explains why OT security needs a different approach to vulnerability management and risk prioritization.
Recent advisories from U.S. federal authorities on vulnerabilities in certain operational technology devices underscore the potential security risks that many healthcare providers frequently underestimate, said Sila Özeren, a security research engineer at Picus Security.
CISO Tammy Klotz Discusses the Value of Peer Support in Advance of ManuSec 2025Manufacturers face many challenges in securing OT and IT systems, from legacy technology to managing vulnerabilities. Tammy Klotz, CISO at Trinseo and last year's ManuSec Summit event chair, discusses the value of sharing firsthand insights with a cybersecurity community.
Successful Breaches Renew Fears of Operational Vulnerabilities Across Water SectorRussia is suspected of escalating cyberattacks on European water utilities, including attempts to sabotage Polish and Norwegian water facilities and dams, signaling a broader threat to global critical infrastructure as state-backed actors exploit critical OT weaknesses amid global conflict.
Recent advisories from U.S. federal authorities on vulnerabilities in certain operational technology devices underscore the potential security risks that many healthcare providers frequently underestimate, said Sila Özeren, a security research engineer at Picus Security.
Majority of Attacks Target Operational Technology NetworksExploitation attempts against a severe vulnerability in a runtime system widely deployed in operational technology environments spiked globally in the days after open-source maintainers of the Erlang/OTP project published a patch. Attackers could take full control of systems.
