Malware, Phishing & Ransomware

Industrial environments are faced with rising threats from malware directly targeting the sector. Ransomware has escalated from a fledgling threat into a severe force that requires adequate preparation. Adversaries and cybercriminals also use phishing to lure their targets by sending fraudulent emails or other communications. Such messages are designed to look like they come from a trusted sender, with the intent of coaxing their victim to provide confidential information on a scam website. Often, malware gets downloaded onto a computer within the organization, making the impression that cybercrime attacks such as APTs and ransomware incidents usually begin with phishing.
