Chemical Cybersecurity Solutions
Summary: Dragos describes an OT security offering for chemical facilities, built on more than a decade of OT-specific telemetry, adversary research, and incident work, and organized around the SANS Institute's five critical controls: ICS incident response planning, defensible architecture, network visibility and monitoring, secure remote access, and risk-based vulnerability management. The company says it tracks five activity groups targeting the chemical sector, including MAGNALLIUM, active since 2017 and using phishing and password spraying, and CHRYSENE, which uses watering-hole attacks and covert communication.
What's compelling: Chemical plants run OT that must stay online for safety and production, so traditional IT patching is impractical - and attackers count on that, since disrupting operations can force ransom payments and create real-world safety risks.
