In the early 1900s, philosopher George Santayana coined the immortal phrase, “Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” The same maxim holds true in industrial cybersecurity. Every piece of malware, phishing attempt or distributed denial of service attack started somewhere. One way to improve your cybersecurity posture is to learn from past attacks. What did the attackers exploit, what was the ensuing damage and what did we learn from the incident?
