All? That's all?! This massive breach doesn't just affect AT&T customers, it includes all the people opposite AT&T communications. Why is this written in a way that seems to only notify AT&T customers? Am I missing something? I have a feeling the next update coming out of this will be that it was more than just records of calls and texts made, but will include the actual messages, perhaps even phone call recordings as well. That would account for endless amounts of blackmail material, among all sorts of other far-reaching implications. #ATTbreach #StolenRecords #datatheft https://lnkd.in/g39Nx7yn

We are pleased to announce that TXOne has just completed a round of financing, raising a total of $51 million in this extension round of Series B, bringing the total Series B funding to $131.4 million. We are grateful for the investors' recognition of TXOne's vision and execution capabilities. TXOne believes that to excel in OT cybersecurity, it is crucial to protect the mission-critical assets there. Only by truly understanding and adapting to the unique constraints and requirements of OT operations in different vertical industries can we effectively address the pain points of users. Our strategy is to collaborate with industry leaders from various sectors to identify and formulate the best practices for OT cybersecurity, ensuring the success of our customers. In addition to serving manufacturing industries such as semiconductor, automotive, pharmaceuticals, and food and beverage, which we have been operating for several years, we have also successfully expanded into critical infrastructure sectors such as railway transportation, oil and gas, power utility, and shipping. OT cybersecurity is a vast and challenging field. There is no shortcut to lowering the difficulty level; it requires understanding the nature of the challenges, developing effective solutions for customers, and continuously refining them. Only through constant practice can we reduce the difficulty, replicate, and scale the industry. We will continue our efforts and hope to receive your support. https://lnkd.in/gqBrAXa8

It was an honor to be asked to collaborate on this piece with Automation.com. I hope it helps others understand the past, present and future state of securing critical infrastructure. I reference the "past" because as the Chief OT Strategist here at Cyolo I must understand our customers and industry trends on all levels. Living with the mindset of "those who forget the past are destined to repeat it" we must never forget the impact it truly has on the present and future state of ICS/OT. This articles vision is where things are going (hence the title) but no one has a crystal ball into the future. But if we look into the past at people, process and technology, trends and patterns do occur. I welcome your thoughts and feedback on the article and I look forward to the chance to write more thought leadership in the future. #criticalinfrastructure #icssecurity #cisa
