Melissa K. GriffithFrom catching up with old friends to examining Chinese foreign investment in US farmland, #LABScon24 had it all. You know the community and conversations are excellent when you accidentally miss the impromptu Alperovitch Institute team photo because you were geeking out with a fellow cybersecurity researcher (we were out in force again this year!).
GreyNoise👯♀️ Besties @censys + @greynoise teamed up to uncover big Industrial Control System threats! 40K+ devices at risk, and attackers are all over Remote Access (hello, VNC)! Time to level up ICS security 🔐 #LABSCon24 https://buff.ly/4e9qTeB
Challenging Assumptions: Enhancing the Understanding of Securing Internet-Exposed Industrial Control Systems | GreyNoise Blog
Discover the latest findings from Censys and GreyNoise on the real-world threats facing internet-exposed Industrial Control Systems (ICS). At LABSCon 2024, they revealed surprising research on how attackers prioritize common Remote Access Service (RAS) protocols over ICS-specific communication, highlighting key security challenges for critical infrastructure. Learn more about how internet-connected HMIs are rapidly targeted and the implications for ICS security.
Looking forward to another thought provoking year at #LABScon24! Hats off to SentinelOne and the entire organizing and sponsoring team for bringing together a vibrant slice of the threat intelligence community three years running.
This year’s fantastic lineup includes Max Smeets, Kim Zetter, MJ Emanuel, Dakota Cary, Silas Cutler, Kristin Del Rosso, Tom Hegel, Gabriel Bernadett-Shapiro, and Juan Andres Guerrero Saade (the man and the myth behind #LABScon24).
And a special shoutout to Martin Wendiggensen - a Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) PhD student with the Alperovitch Institute for Cybersecurity Studies - on his second time taking to the LABScon stage.
Nothing says I work in tech more than a pile a hoodies. What will year three bring?
