IT/OT Segmentation Series – Post 3: What Not to Do When it comes to IT/OT segmentation, mistakes can leave your port or vessel exposed, even if your intentions are good. Here are some common pitfalls we see during cybersecurity assessments under the new Coast Guard Cyber Rule: 🚫 Assuming VLANs = Segmentation Virtual LANs are helpful, but they aren’t enough. Without physical or properly firewalled separation, VLANs can still allow malware to move laterally between IT and OT networks. 🚫 Overlooking Vendor Access Many third-party maintenance providers have persistent remote access into OT environments...and no one’s watching. Every one of those connections is an attack path. 🚫 Skipping Legacy System Reviews Even old equipment with no direct internet access can be a backdoor risk if it’s on the same flat network as modern systems. 🚫 Not Doing a Complete Physical and Logical Inventory Cranes are quite obvious, but we see many instances where smaller systems are not accounted for. You have to treat your physical inspection like a child treats hunting for Easter eggs: open cabinets, and deliberately seek out OT systems. ✅ The new Coast Guard Rule requires segmentation. But doing it wrong won’t just fail compliance...it leaves you vulnerable. In Post 4, we’ll talk about how to maintain segmented environments over time through monitoring and access control. Need a segmentation check-up? MAD Security can help.

Yet, the Louvre's massive security failure came down to a truck, a ladder, and a misplaced camera. This embarrassing, high-stakes story is the perfect analogy for cybersecurity. The Louvre's security failed because their focus was complex (protecting art from opportunistic vandals) while the threat was ridiculously simple (a poorly aimed camera and a ladder). The lesson is this: In security, complexity is necessary, but it is never sufficient. As a Threat Intelligence and Hunt Specialist, I see this exact failure pattern daily. The root of the problem is failing to translate Threat Modeling into simple, "What if?" scenarios: 1. The Over-Engineered Defense: We put millions into EDR on production servers but forget to monitor development environments, assuming "attackers don't care about non-prod." (They do, because it's the soft route in.) 2. The Size Fallacy: We tell our SMEs, "You're too small for attackers to care." (They care because easy targets mean high volume and quick wins.) 3. The Comfort of Compliance: We install MFA and declare "We're fine," ignoring the potential for a supply chain compromise that circumvents the perimeter we just hardened. The attacker doesn't think in terms of complexity or reasonability. They think in terms of possibility and the lowest friction point. Your call to action is simple: Continue focusing on the fortress, but also start hunting for the obvious, unmonitored "ladder" you've ignored because it seems too simple to be true. #ThreatModeling #StrategicRisk #ClarityInSecurity #ThreatHunting #DigitalResilience

Four airports hacked. PA systems compromised. Flight displays breached. One passenger at Harrisburg International asked the right question: "If they hacked the paging system, what else are they tunneling into?" This is every critical infrastructure operator's nightmare: discovering one compromised system is connected to everything else. Airports. Water utilities. 911 centers. Electric grids. Same vulnerability pattern: - Cloud-based systems - Third-party vendors - Interconnected networks - Limited security resources The solution? Systematic implementation of NIST CSF across all connected systems—not just the obvious ones. Cyber Secure Dashboard helps infrastructure operators map vulnerabilities, implement controls, and maintain the documentation that proves you're ready. Because "we didn't think they'd target that system" isn't a defense. 📰 Read the full story: https://lnkd.in/ecZnFKSv #AirportSecurity #CyberAttack #CriticalInfrastructure #AviationSecurity #CyberBreach #TransportationSecurity #FAA #CISA #AirportCybersecurity #CyberThreats #TravelSecurity #CloudSecurity #AccessControl #NISTCSF #InfrastructureProtection #PublicSafety #CyberResilience #SecurityBreach #AirportOperations #CyberIncident

Four airports breached through PA systems this week. One passenger asked: "If they hacked the paging system, what else are they tunneling into?" That's the question every critical infrastructure operator should be asking right now.
