Michael Pyle on Securing Internet-Facing OT and ICS Assets

Michael Pyle, Director of Product Cybersecurity at Schneider Electric, joins the Nexus Podcast to discuss Internet Exposure Prevention, a new SE approach to preventing illicit connections to operational technology and industrial control systems that are insecurely connected to the internet. Attackers are adept at enumerating exposed devices and leveraging OT and ICS to access process and corporate networks. Pyle explains that Internet Exposure Prevention drops inbound traffic that the asset did not initiate. Checks are made on the IP address initiating the connection and whether it's a routable source IP, and an allow/deny decision is made. Pyle explains the risk to exposed devices, and the need to shut down illicit connections.
