Have you heard the news? There’s a new Stuxnet-like malware floating around in cyberspace. It’s called Irongate, and it uses the Man-in-the-Middle (MiTM) technique to get between a programmable logic controller (PLC) and a software program, replacing a Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file with malicious code. The malicious code, discovered by FireEye Labs Advanced Reverse Engineering (FLARE) team, targets a simulated Siemens control system environment. The good news is, the industrial control system (ICS) malware seems to be a test of some sort, and therefore not a threat. But manufacturers shouldn’t shake this off too easily, as we know what malware like Stuxnet and BlackEnergy can do.

It’s news like this that has many cybersecurity suppliers rushing to come up with a way to keep ICS malware at bay. And this week, Bayshore Networks, a provider of technology designed to secure the industrial Internet, did just that. The company announced that its Bayshore IT/OT Gateway has the ability to protect industrial operations from the likes of Stuxnet, BlackEnergy, Irongate and more.
