NIST, CyberX Collaborate to Secure Manufacturing Industrial Control Systems 

CyberX’s industrial cybersecurity platform was used by NIST to recommend new ways of securing manufacturing industrial control systems. Developed by NIST’s National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE), a newly released report shows how technologies like CyberX enable manufacturing organizations to reduce the risk of disruptive cyber attacks like NotPetya and WannaCry, enable faster incident response and shorter downtimes, and deliver real-time visibility and monitoring of ICS assets and networks.

The report was the product of a close collaboration between the NCCoE, CyberX, and other technology providers such as OSIsoft. It presents detailed findings and a reference architecture that organizations can use for their own environments.

The NIST report documents the use of behavioral anomaly detection (BAD) in two distinct environments: a robotics-based manufacturing system, and a process control system similar to those used in chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturing. In addition, the report maps the security characteristics of BAD to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), a practical standard for operational controls based on business objectives.
