Cyber threats get the headlines but there are enough people working cyber. Systems Security Engineering (SSE) is a holistic discipline that embeds security into every phase of a system’s lifecycle. It’s not just about firewalls and encryption—it’s about resilience, integrity, and trustworthiness across physical, operational, and supply chain domains. Here’s why SSE matters beyond the cyber domain: Physical threats like sabotage, tampering, and environmental hazards Operational risks from insider threats and procedural gaps Supply chain vulnerabilities including counterfeit components and untrusted vendors Information security that goes beyond networks, think secure hardware and document handling Safety-security interplay where breaches can trigger safety failures SSE tackles these challenges by: Identifying hazards early: natural, human, or procedural Embedding tamper-proof, fail-safe designs from the start Validating supply chain integrity Coordinating cross-disciplinary teams Planning for recovery from non-cyber disruptions The result? Systems that are robust, resilient, and secure by design, not just by patch. Security isn’t a bolt-on. It’s a built-in. Let’s expand the conversation beyond cybersecurity. Because in today’s complex environments, non-digital threats can be just as damaging. #SecurityByDesign #OperationalSecurity #SupplyChainResilience #SSE #CyberResilience #PhysicalSecurity #RiskManagement #SafetyAndSecurity

🚨 When a cyber attack strikes… what happens next? That’s where Incident Response (IR) comes in. Every organization needs a solid IR plan — not having one is like fighting a fire without water. 🔑 Phases of Incident Response: 1️⃣ Preparation – Define policies, train teams, run simulations. 2️⃣ Detection & Analysis – Spot the incident, confirm it’s real. 3️⃣ Containment, Eradication, Recovery – Stop the spread, remove the threat, restore systems. 4️⃣ Lessons Learned – Review what failed, improve defenses. 👉 IR is not just about fixing damage, it’s about building resilience. ❓Do you think most companies actually test their IR plans or just keep them on paper? #CyberSecurity #IncidentResponse #InfoSec #BlueTeam #CyberResilience

Industrial Cyber Resilience with Kaspersky 🔎 Step 4 of 8: Detect Once your systems are inventoried, assessed, and secured, the next challenge is staying alert. 🚨 Detection is where resilience truly comes alive, ensuring that threats and anomalies are spotted before they can impact your operations. With detection, you’re not just reacting, you’re proactively monitoring behavior, identifying anomalies, and uncovering hidden risks across your OT environment. From gathering data and establishing baselines, to detecting anomalies and responding in real time, detection keeps your business one step ahead. Kaspersky’s solutions, including Machine Learning for Anomaly Detection (MLAD) and the Unified Monitoring and Analysis Platform (UMAP), empower your teams to detect, respond, and futureproof your cyber resilience.

🚨 Red Team Assessment: Beyond Traditional Security Testing 🚨 In today’s digital world, cybercriminals are more advanced than ever. A Red Team Assessment helps organizations stay ahead by simulating real-world attacks against their infrastructure, people, and processes. ✅ What is it? A Red Team Assessment is a full-scope security exercise where ethical hackers mimic the tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) of real attackers to test how resilient your defenses really are. ✅ Why is it important? ✔️Identifies hidden vulnerabilities before attackers exploit them. ✔️Tests not just technology, but also people and processes. ✔️Provides insights into how well your blue team (defenders) can detect and respond to threats. ✔️Helps organizations build a proactive security culture. ✅ Real-World Examples: ✔️Social engineering campaigns (phishing, impersonation). ✔️Network intrusion and lateral movement. ✔️Physical security testing. ✔️Data exfiltration simulation. 🔐 In short, Red Teaming goes beyond scanning and patching—it’s about resilience, detection, and response. 👉 Is your organization ready to face an advanced persistent threat (APT)-level attack? #CyberSecurity #RedTeam #EthicalHacking #PenTest #VulnerabilityAssessment #SecurityTesting #InfoSec #debugsecurity #vwrap

🔐 Strong Cybersecurity starts with clarity, not just controls. Too often, organizations jump into solutions—deploying new tools, layering controls, or reacting to the latest threat. But effective security begins with defining the problem: ✅ Know your landscape → What assets and data truly matter? ✅ Understand your risk appetite → What level of exposure can the business accept? ✅ Prioritize protections → Focus resources where they reduce the most risk. 👉 Example: A hospital may have thousands of devices connected to its network. But if its MRI machines or patient records system go down, lives are at risk. By knowing what’s critical, the hospital directs investment into securing those systems first—rather than trying to lock down everything equally. In cybersecurity, once you understand your assets and risk appetite, the path to securing them becomes much clearer. 💡 Strong cybersecurity is less about chasing every new tool and more about asking the right questions first. #CyberSecurity #RiskManagement #InfoSec #CISO #SecurityArchitecture #DataProtection #CyberResilience

Building a resilient future requires securing our critical infrastructure. OT security is no longer just an IT concern – it's fundamental to safeguarding physical assets, ensuring business continuity, and protecting lives. Here are 7 key practices should all be focusing on: 1. Network Segmentation & Isolation: Crucial for containing threats and preventing lateral movement between IT and OT. 2. Robust Access Control: Implement least privilege and strong authentication to prevent unauthorized access. 3. Vulnerability Management (Carefully Managed): Proactive identification and a controlled patching strategy for OT systems. 4. Continuous Monitoring & Incident Response: Real-time threat detection and a tailored plan for rapid recovery. 5. Secure Configuration Management: Establishing and enforcing secure baselines for all OT devices. 6. Employee Training & Awareness: Empowering our workforce as the first line of defense against cyber threats. 7. Regular Backups & Disaster Recovery: Essential for minimizing downtime and data loss in the event of an incident. Let's collectively strengthen our OT defenses and secure our industrial future. #OTSecurity #Cybersecurity #CriticalInfrastructure #IndustrialControlSystems #ICS #SCADA #CyberAwareness #InfoSec

OT Reality Check Dragos’ own report admits it: “94 percent of Dragos engagements in 2023 uncovered a significant deficiency in one or more controls.” (Dragos Benchmarking Guide: Assess Your OT Cybersecurity Maturity – 2024 Year in Review, p.2) That’s not an “advanced threat” problem. That’s a foundation problem. You can’t build Defensible Architecture (Control #2) without an accurate, automatically updated OT asset inventory. You can’t do Risk-Based Vulnerability Management (Control #5) without mapping vulnerabilities to real, current assets. And yet—most of the industry keeps selling monitoring as if it’s the foundation. It isn’t. Inventory is. Always has been. 👉 See what a real OT asset inventory looks like: • Get $1,000 worth of automatically updated OT asset inventory data free with OTbase Snapshot: https://lnkd.in/ewKHFABd • Or schedule a 15-minute micro demo: https://lnkd.in/e8RbYFHQ #OTbase #OTRealityCheck #OTSnapshot #OTinventory #OTsecurity #CriticalInfrastructure #IndustrialCybersecurity
