ICS MALWARE SANDBOX

January 22, 2019

Industrial Control System (ICS) and IIoT networks require specialized security capabilities because traditional IT sandboxes cannot “explode” or run ICS malware. Traditional IT malware sandboxes provide an environment in which malware is allowed to roam free so that its behavior and payloads can be studied. VirusTotal, for example, has been around for years and provides a valuable resource by allowing analysts to upload suspected malware to a cloud-based environment, where they can then observe whether commercial anti-malware programs detect the malware, without suffering ill effects.

whitePaper | June 13, 2022

Many cyber-attacks involve ransomware, a form of malicious software or malware, designed to deny access to a computer system or data until a ransom is paid and a decryption key (commonly called a decryptor) is given to the victim. The encryption is virtually unbreakable without the decryption key, and you should not spend valuable time seeking a way around the encryption if you are attacked with it. Ransomware can spread in multiple ways, but most typically, through phishing emails or by unknowingly visiting an infected website. Ransomware can be catastrophic to healthcare and other organizations, preventing critical information and systems for patient care from being accessed, for example.
