Kaspersky Report: Energy and ICS Integration companies face highest chance of cyberattack
卡巴斯基報告:能源和工控系統集成公司面臨最高的網絡攻擊風險
A report from Kaspersky Lab found that in the second half of 2017, nearly 40 percent of all industrial control systems (ICS) in energy organizations protected by Kaspersky Lab solutions were attacked by malware at least once – closely followed by 35 percent of engineering & ICS integration networks.
卡巴斯基實驗室發布的一份報告發現,在2017年下半年,受卡巴斯基實驗室解決方案保護的能源組織中,有近40%的工業控制系統(ICS)至少遭到一次的惡意軟件攻擊,緊隨其后的是35%的工程和工控系統集成網絡。
The Kaspersky Lab report, “Threat Landscape for Industrial Automation Systems in H2 2017,” also found that for all other industries (manufacturing, transportation, utilities, food, healthcare, etc.) the proportion of ICS computers attacked ranged from 26 percent to 30 percent on average. The vast majority of detected attacks were accidental hits.
這份“2017年下半年工業自動化系統威脅情況”卡巴斯基實驗室報告還發現,對于所有其他行業(制造業、交通運輸業、公用事業、食品、醫療保健等)而言,工控系統計算機遭受攻擊的比例平均介乎26%到30%之間。絕大多數檢測到的攻擊都是意外擊中。
The cybersecurity of industrial facilities remains an issue that can lead to very serious consequences affecting industrial processes, as well as businesses losses. While analyzing the threat landscape in different industries, Kaspersky Lab ICS CERT recorded that nearly all industries regularly experience cyberattacks on their ICS computers. However, there are two industries that were attacked more than others – energy organizations (39%), and engineering and ICS integration businesses (35%).
工業設施的網絡安全仍然是一大問題,可能導致影響工業流程的嚴重后果,造成企業損失。在分析不同行業的威脅情況時,卡巴斯基實驗室工控系統網絡應急響應小組記錄了幾乎所有行業其工控系統計算機日常遭受的網絡攻擊。但有兩個行業較其他行業受到的攻擊更多,那就是能源機構(39%),以及工程和工控系統集成業務(35%)。
The sector that demonstrated the most noticeable growth of ICS computers attacked during the second half of 2017 (compared to the first half of 2017) was construction, with 31 percent attacked. The relatively high percentage of attacked ICS computers in the construction industry compared to the first half of 2017 could indicate that these organizations are not necessarily mature enough to pay the required attention to the protection of industrial computers. Their computerized automation systems might be relatively new and an industrial cybersecurity culture is still being developed in these organizations.
在2017年下半年(與2017年上半年相比),工控系統計算機受攻擊上升最為明顯的行業是建筑業,有31%受到攻擊。與2017年上半年相比,建筑行業受到攻擊的工控系統計算機的比例相對較高,這可能表明這些機構未必足夠成熟,無法對工業計算機的保護給予必要的關注。他們的計算機自動化系統可能相對較新,并且這些組織仍未確立工業網絡安全意識。
The lowest percentage of ICS attacks – 15 percent – has been found in enterprises specializing in developing ICS software, meaning that their ICS research/development laboratories, testing platforms, demo stands and training environment are also being attacked by malicious software, although not as often as the ICS computers of industrial enterprises. Kaspersky Lab ICS CERT experts point to the significance of ICS vendors’ security, because the consequences of an attack spreading over the vendor’s partner ecosystem and customer base could be very dramatic – as seen during the ExPetr malware epidemic.
專注于開發工控系統軟件的企業受攻擊比例最低,僅為15% ,不過這意味著這些工控系統研究/開發實驗室、測試平臺、演示臺和培訓環境也會受到惡意軟件的攻擊,盡管不像工業企業的工控系統計算機那么頻繁??ò退够鶎嶒炇夜た叵到y網絡應急響應小組專家了指出工控系統供應商安全的重要性,因為對供應商合作伙伴生態系統和客戶群的攻擊蔓延的后果可能非常強烈——正如ExPetr惡意軟件流行期間所發生的。
Among the new trends of 2017, Kaspersky Lab ICS CERT researchers have discovered a rise in mining attacks on ICS. This growth trend began in September 2017, along with an increase in the cryptocurrency market and miners in general. But in the case of industrial enterprises, this type of attack can pose a greater threat by creating a significant load on computers, and as a result, negatively affecting the operation of the enterprise’s ICS components and threatening their stability.
在2017年的新趨勢中,卡巴斯基實驗室工控系統網絡應急響應小組的研究人員發現了對工控系統挖礦攻擊的增加。這種增長趨勢始于2017年9月,伴隨加密貨幣市場火爆和礦工總體增加。但對工業企業而言,這類攻擊可能會對計算機造成重大負擔從而構成更大的威脅,對企業的工控系統組件的運行產生負面影響并威脅其穩定性。
Overall, during the period from February 2017 to January 2018, cryptocurrency mining programs attacked three percent of industrial automation system computers, in most cases accidentally.
總的來說,在2017年2月至2018年1月期間,加密電子貨幣挖掘程序攻擊了3%的工業自動化系統計算機,絕大多數是意外攻擊。
Other highlights from the report include:
報告的其他亮點包括:
“The results of our research into attacked ICS computers in various industries have surprised us, “said Evgeny Goncharov, head of Kaspersky Lab ICS CERT. “For example, the high percentage of ICS computers attacked in power and energy companies demonstrated that the enterprises’ effort to ensure cybersecurity of their automation systems after some serious incidents in the industry is not enough, and there are multiple loopholes still there that cybercriminals can use.”
卡巴斯基實驗室工控系統網絡應急響應小組負責人Evgeny Goncharov表示:“我們對各行業受攻擊工控系統計算機的研究結果讓我們感到驚訝。例如,電力和能源公司遭受工控系統計算機攻擊的比例很高,這表明企業在行業發生嚴重事故后確保其自動化系統網絡安全的努力是不夠的,留給網絡犯罪分子利用的漏洞仍然很多。”
Kaspersky Lab ICS CERT recommends the following technical measures to be taken:
