Humans, 'Promiscuous Devices' Creating More Threats

Security Breach

How increasingly complex attacks might demand taking humans out of the cybersecurity loop.
First published in 2014, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) recently announced updates to its Cybersecurity Framework (CSF). The goal of version 2.0 of the CSF is to better integrate areas like supply chain risk management and governance.
All of these measures would appear tailored towards greater inclusion of the industrial sector, and many of its unique challenges. And the timing couldn’t be better. According to Proofpoint’s 2023 Voice of the CISO report, 76 percent of industrial sector chief information security officers feel their organization is at risk for a cyber attack within the next 12 months.
Our guest for today’s episode is Ethan Schmertzler, CEO of Dispel, a leading provider of secure access solutions for industrial control systems.
