Lessons from the Colonial Pipeline Cyberattack

Why manufacturers and utilities need to harden OT networks now

The ransomware attack that shut down the Colonial Pipeline on May 7, 2021, is considered one of the most impactful cyberattacks against US Critical Infrastructure to date, but it’s not the only one. Many infrastructure and manufacturing facility cyberattacks occur that we don’t even hear about.

To find out what we can learn from this and other incidents, listen to this interview with Grant Geyer, chief product officer at Claroty - a leading industrial cybersecurity firm and a Rockwell Automation digital partner. We examine how the Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack happened, and also review the February 2021 Oldsmar, Florida water treatment cyberattack and its far-reaching effects.

The interview Q&A also reveals key lessons about cybersecurity in Oil and Gas, Energy and other Critical Infrastructure sectors – lessons that can be applied to all manufacturers and in-dustrial organizations.

Is Your Current Industrial Security Strategy Enough?

Assess risks and vulnerabilities, then take action to close gaps

The fight against cyber threats is unending and the landscape changes constantly.

It’s hard to know if your industrial security strategy is enough, and failure to be ready comes at a high price. Especially for Critical Infrastructure organizations, downtime impacts are amplified in effects on the day-to-day life and well-being of the public. What’s more, unpatched legacy infrastructure and other common exposures make industrial organizations attractive targets.

How do you know if your current defenses are enough?

Start with professional risk and vulnerability assessments. Thorough assessments by experienced industrial and cybersecurity professionals can find both common and hidden gaps. An Installed Base Evaluation™, for example, tells you exactly what’s connected to your network, and penetration testing reveals where phishing and other attacks could succeed.

When you know what to protect, you can take proactive steps to hardening defenses. Understand the key areas that need to be evaluated in this blog.
