Understanding Where System Vulnerabilities Lie
CHALLENGE
How Do You Know Which Sensors, Controllers and IoT Devices are Vulnerable?
Transportation and logistics operational environments contain thousands of devices from multiple vendors. For example, assets that track equipment performance, humidity and luminosity are used in passenger and luggage screening systems, environmental and lighting controls, and so much more.
Unfortunately, most operational devices lack the built-in security required to keep passengers, data and systems safe. Many OT and IoT assets are missing the authentication, encryption, and other security standards that typically apply to IT applications and systems.
Which leaves you with more questions than answers – such as, which devices are vulnerable and in need of better protection? And, which ones require firmware updates or other actions to close the door on cyber risks?
SOLUTION
Automated Vulnerability Assessment Identifies At-risk Assets
- Are devices from Vendor X vulnerable?
- How many assets on our network are still running Windows XP?
- Do I need to update certain devices because their firmware is vulnerable?
