A set of 38 security vulnerabilities has been uncovered in wireless industrial internet of things (IIoT) devices from four different vendors that could pose a significant attack surface for threat actors looking to exploit operational technology (OT) environments.
“Threat actors can exploit vulnerabilities in Wireless IIoT devices to gain initial access to internal OT networks,” Israeli industrial cybersecurity company Otorio said. “They can use these vulnerabilities to bypass security layers and infiltrate target networks, putting critical infrastructure at risk or interrupting manufacturing.”
