What if cyber resilience could be predictive, not just reactive?
💡 On Nexus, OT-ISAC’s AJ Eserjose explores how shared intelligence helps organizations stay ahead of threats. By turning attack, threat, and risk signals into actionable insights, collective intelligence can strengthen both cyber and operational resilience.

AI Tools Facilitate but Fail to Deliver in Water System Hack Attempt
In a recent cyber attack on nine Mexican government entities, hackers surprisingly used AI tools like Claude and Chat GPT to help breach the systems, but ultimately failed to cause significant harm. The attack, which included a January intrusion into a municipal water and sewage utility, revealed that while AI can…

OT-Focused Malware Highlights Emerging Risk to Water Infrastructure Systems
ZionSiphon is operational technology-focused malware targeting water treatment and desalination facilities in Israel. The sample demonstrates ICS-awareness through industrial protocol interaction capabilities including Modbus, with incomplete support for DNP3 and S7comm. It incorporates geographic and environmental validation controls designed to restrict execution to Israeli water infrastructure systems. The malware attempts persistence through registry autorun entries, privilege escalation, and removable media propagation. Functionality includes network discovery of industrial devices, process manipulation targeting chlorine dosing and flow control, and configuration file modification. A critical validation flaw prevents successful execution, suggesting the analyzed sample represents incomplete development or testing. Embedded pro-Iran and anti-Israel messaging indicates politically motivated intent, though no specific threat actor attribution exists.

🎙️ On this Nexus Podcast recorded LIVE from ☀️ S4 Conference in Miami, #cybersecurity expert Mike Holcomb discusses how state actors may be leveraging hacktivists to target operational technology (#OT).
Holcomb has delineated these groups in what he calls a Converged Actor Framework that categorizes threat actors by the impact and frequency of their incidents. A converged actor is potentially the riskiest given the potential for high frequency high impact incidents.

Lock down your #criticalinfrastructure, #CISA begs admins
#OperationalTechnology (OT) refers to any technology that deals with physical processes, be it manufacturing equipment, energy distribution, oil and gas production, or some other industrial duty. Long isolated from the public internet but more frequently connected in our modern era, OT systems remain an afterthought for many #ITsecurity teams.

My team develops #Zeek network analyzers for #OT protocols (see ICSNPP on GitHub). If you're familiar with this work, you know one of the hardest parts about it is getting sample data. If you've got access to traffic for some of the more niche protocols on our list (BSAP, ANSI C12.22, GE-SRTP, GENISYS, ROC Plus, Synchrophasor, etc.) and are willing and able to share a bit of PCAP, would you please reach out to me?

Oops, I forgot one:
I also went to this talk at #SteelCon by Sam Maesschalck about OT.
No, not Operating Thetan, but #OperationalTechnology apparently, which basically means embedded systems etc for manufacturing and utilities etc. and what we can do to try and secure these old/insecure systems that were never supposed to be on the internet.... -

The best ICS testing results don’t come from a single approach. Onsite testing has to be risk-averse, and lab testing can uncover deeper vulnerabilities. The key? A combined approach…
OT environments don't stand up to regular IT pen testing. Any pen tester that doesn't fully understand that could easily destroy systems and take out critical infrastructure.
By strategically selecting devices for lab testing based on onsite insights, you get the best of both worlds without unnecessary risk or cost.
In our latest blog, Head of Hardware Andrew Tierney explains how this method finds hidden threats in ICS networks: https://www.pentestpartners.com/security-blog/ics-testing-best-results-hint-blend-your-approach/#cybersecurity #icsmonitoring #industrialsecurity #cyberdefense #securityresearch #operationaltechnology #incidentresponse #cyberawareness
