Common ICS/OT Vulnerabilities in 2021
Our friends over at Dragos recently released their 2021 Year In Review report, which found some shocking statistics about the 1,703 ICS/OT vulnerabilities reported in 2021.
NO PATCHES AVAILABLE
24% of the total 1,703 ICS/OT vulnerabilities reported in 2021 had no patches available
NO MITIGATION
Out of this number, 19% had no mitigation, preventing operators from taking any steps to safeguard their systems from potential threats.
Dragos identified malicious activity from three new groups that were found targeting ICS systems last year, each of which targeted the OT environments of renewable energy, electrical utility, and mining firms located in Canada, Kazakhstan, and USA.
