Abstract

Abstract Today, industrial cybersecurity is in the early stages of its development, gradually evolving into a science and technology discipline that will become the cornerstone of industrial manufacturing and construction technologies, the infrastructure of modern cities, transportation, healthcare, etc. The community of researchers and engineers is constantly looking for solutions to protect both existing systems and future technologies. As we depart from the starting point, we must build our assumptions on an objective assessment of the current situation, because, at this stage, even seemingly insignificant misconceptions can cause major fluctuations that prevent us from choosing the right strategy. In this article, we will discuss typical misconceptions and common errors in assessing the security of industrial control systems that Kaspersky Lab ICS CERT experts encounter in their day-to-day communication with people from different industrial sectors and the community of information security experts. We will support our conclusions with the results of the past several years’ research into the various cyberthreats affecting industrial enterprises.
