In our first blog, we outlined the challenges of NERC CIP-015-1, which mandates Internal Network Security Monitoring (INSM) within Electronic Security Perimeters (ESPs), exposing the limitations of traditional SIEM, IDS, and NTA tools in SCADA and air-gapped Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities (SCIFs). Our second blog highlighted the need for an OT-centric approach, introducing MixMode’s Third-Wave […]| MixMode
We explore why an OT-centric approach is critical for addressing CIP-015-1’s unique demands and introduce MixMode’s Third-Wave AI, a transformative solution with origins in SCADA and mechanical engineering.| MixMode
The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) Reliability Standard CIP-015-1, effective September 2, 2025, demands a new approach to securing critical infrastructure, exposing the inadequacies of conventional methods.| MixMode
Water and Wastewater Systems are increasingly becoming soft targets for sophisticated cyber attackers. A new joint fact sheet from the EPA and CISA puts this threat front and center, warning utilities about the growing risk of internet-exposed Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs).| MixMode
The Cookie-Bite attack is an advanced evolution of Pass-the-Cookie exploits. This tactic bypasses Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) by leveraging stolen authentication cookies—such as Azure Entra ID’s ESTSAUTH and ESTSAUTHPERSISTENT—to impersonate users.| MixMode
Water and Wastewater Systems are increasingly becoming soft targets for sophisticated cyber attackers. A new joint fact sheet from the EPA and CISA puts this threat front and center, warning utilities about the growing risk of internet-exposed Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs). These essential components of water system operations are now…| MixMode
