Security Breach: The Hack You Helped Create

Advanced automation technologies have created a plethora of connection-related vulnerabilities — all of which bad actors are excited to exploit.

This episode focuses on a vulnerability within the industrial sector that is essentially a product of progress. The enhanced data sharing capabilities and operational efficiencies that have been realized in establishing an estimated 20 billion device connections in manufacturing enterprises around the globe have come at a price for some.

In the sector’s zeal to push forward with digital transformation plans and realize the benefits of automation, software and data-driven production schemes, all of these connection points offer a soft spot for hackers to probe and pinpoint in launching various types of attacks.

Joining us to discuss this evolving situation and offer some in-depth analysis from his company’s recent report – The API Security Disconnect - is Filip Verloy, Technical Evangelist at Noname Security.
