How can cyber security teams secure a smart building without first knowing what devices, systems, and connections are active in the building? That is the quandary facing building owners and managers as smart devices proliferate across their facilities, leaving a large and growing attack surface undefended. Those responsible for cyber security have to map entire networks in order to identify and address vulnerabilities, but it is not that easy with the real-world complexities of buildings and a wide range of important security issues are falling through the gaps. “To conduct a comprehensive cyber risk evaluation of all of the devices on a particular network, a complete audit of all of the device and systems connections is necessary,” reads our latest cyber research. “Unfortunately, however, the automated network scanning tools and technologies that are commonly deployed in IT environments to facilitate this audit process are ill-suited to OT environments. As smart building OT devices and systems often run […]
