It's an honor to be speaking there but what's more important is building relationships & sharing knowledge to help each other do our jobs better.

ICYMI: Gus Serino (a true expert in water / wastewater control systems) spoke on CNN about ruzzian criminal cyber attacks on small town water systems.

Great job Gus and thanks for representing us engineers.

Thank you to our OT.SEC.CON. Sponsor, Google Cloud !

That happened.

Today's #sockstatus is Google NYC 🗽

The Russian cyberattacks on US water, Polish water, and a French dam are complicated. We had established that CARR was being used as a front for Sandworm/APT44 (Russian GRU) prior to the incidents and that they were even involved in creating some of CARR's online presence. 1/x

Today, Mandiant / Google is opening up a Can o’ Sandworms. I’m incredibly proud to have led the year+ long effort with a brilliant group of colleagues to graduate Sandworm into APT44. cloud.google.com/blog/topics/th…

A group called Cyber Army of Russia posted videos in which it tampers with control software for US water utilities, a Polish wastewater plant, and a French hydroelectric dam.

Now a report from Mandiant ties the group to Russia's Sandworm hacker group. wired.com/story/cyber-ar…

Mandiant reveals that a “hacktivist” persona created by APT44, has recently targeted & disrupted U.S. and Polish water utilities, as well as a French dam.

Happy Friday!

Now that the work week is over, I'm finally getting around to smoking this cigar that Bryson 🦄 gave me when I saw him last month. I'm pairing it with this bourbon that Whiskey gave to me as an engagement present back in 2018. I appreciate y'all.

ICYMI: George V. Hulme Claroty asked Michael Farnum and myself our thoughts on migrating ICS/OT environments from on prem to cloud (or hybrid) in response to the NCSC UK recommendations.

This week on the 'Second Best Show on the Internet', the Red Siege Information Security Wednesday Offensive we have Chris Sistrunk 🕊️ from Mandiant / Google. Join us this week or any Wed at 1:30 ET at redsiege.com/wedoff.
