Dragos 2019 ICS Year in Review: Executive Summary
Summary: Dragos assessed 438 ICS vulnerabilities in 2019, reported by independent researchers, vendors, and ICS-CERT, and identified three new activity groups targeting ICS entities globally, bringing its total count to 11. The report concludes that threats to industrial environments are rising and adversaries are maturing their tactics, techniques, and procedures while organizations lack visibility into the operational, safety, and financial impacts on control systems.
Bottom line: Eleven tracked activity groups are adapting specifically to industrial control systems, and Dragos attributes their ability to operate largely unchecked to defenders' lack of visibility in industrial environments and lack of understanding of how an incident could affect physical operations.
