IIoT software vulnerabilities fuel critical-infrastructure attacks–again

In August 2021, Forescout Research Labs and JFrog Security Research identified 14 vulnerabilities affecting the NicheStack TCP/IP stack, which the organizations dubbed INFRA:HALT. TCP/IP stacks enable vendors to implement basic network communications for IP-connected systems, including IT, operational technology (OT) and Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Indeed, NicheStack is present in myriad OT devices […]

Going beyond IoT GPS: A cookbook for mobile IoT applications

Mobile IoT applications can be challenging to implement, when compared against their cousins in fixed locations. In other forms of IoT, it’s common for enterprises to acquire IoT as a packaged system that includes IoT devices, controllers, software, and even vertical-market-specific tools, instruments, and vehicles. In mobile IoT, the applications are often assembled from discrete […]

Malicious attacks on IoT and critical infrastructure gather pace

As the globe continues to wobble through the reverberations of COVID-19, observers say that the impact on critical infrastructure is likely to worsen. Critical infrastructure – which includes government institutions, utilities, transportation and more – is now more vulnerable than ever given an exponential increase in attacks on the IoT technology that powers it. Such […]

Weather still a challenge to autonomous vehicles

In the drive towards full autonomy, vehicle makers and solutions providers must tackle a nearly impossible variety of factors. Some of these, often necessarily, are more attention-grabbing than others but there are numerous ones just as critical that don’t typically appear in auto technology headlines. One is the weather, which is somewhat odd because information […]

Smart-city technology drives efficient disaster response and recovery

From heatwave-induced wildfires in the West to unrelenting hurricanes in the Southeast, natural disasters are increasing in frequency and severity due to climate change. As evidenced in 2020’s historic year of extreme cases, totaling 22 separate billion-dollar weather and climate disasters, we can expect this trend to continue. Today, wildfire season is longer and more severe […]

Starlink speeds accelerate in Q2, with lower latencies than GEO satellite services, Ookla says

Starlink’s overall speeds continue to outpace those of fellow satellite broadband services Viasat and HughesNet, but its median download speeds in the US are starting to enter the neighborhood of fixed-line broadband networks, according to Ookla’s latest round of Speedtest data. Ookla’s data for Q2 2021 found that Starlink’s median download speeds in the US climbed […]

5 key lessons from ICS attacks through the ages

Imagine it’s 1903 and you’re standing in front of a large hotel on a remote peninsula cliffside in Poldhu (Cornwall, UK). Despite the large antennas next to it or the huge kite that sometimes flies antennas even higher, you might not realize you are looking at the site of historic wireless telegraph communications — or the victim of the […]

Trying to apply ethics to driverless technology

Nearly a year ago the European Commission published a report on the ethics of data and artificial intelligence in connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs). Part of the discussion in the text is about data and artificial intelligence (AI) ethics to provide some insight into the data protection issues automakers are expected to overcome. According to […]
