OT-Sicherheit: Vom Perimeterschutz zu identitätsbasiertem Datenverkehr
Noch vor 20 Jahren war es einfach, eine Produktionsanlage zu schützen. Das Gelände umgaben üblicherweise Zäune und gesicherte Tore. Physisch isolierte Netzwerke und statische Hardware an festen Standorten machten Cyberangriffe von außen ebenso unmöglich wie das Fehlen von Remote-Zugriff und Cloudumgebungen. Wer Zugriff auf das Netzwerk hatte, wurde als vertrauenswürdig eingestuft. Dieses Konzept kam im……

When Identity is the Attack Path
Consider a cached access key on a single Windows machine. It got there the way most cached credentials do – a user logged in, and the key stored itself automatically. Standard AWS behavior.
