Space supply chain pressures.

Despite the space sector seeing greater investment and attention year-over-year, the sector still remains bound by an outdated and ineffective supply chain, especially in the United States.

More bark than byte.

This week we are joined by ⁠Daniel Schwalbe⁠, Chief Information Security Officer & Head of Investigations at ⁠DomainTools⁠, discussing their work on "ZionSiphon OT Malware First Attempts? Psyops? Both?" Researchers at DomainTools take a closer look at ZionSiphon, a purported operational technology malware sample targeting the water sector, and find that despite its alarming appearance, it lacks many of the capabilities needed to function as a credible cyber-physical weapon. They break down the malware's architecture, its operational shortcomings, and why it may be more of a prototype or proof of concept than a deployable threat. With heightened concern surrounding attacks on critical infrastructure amid the ongoing U.S.-Iran conflict, the research offers timely insight into separating genuine OT threats from overhyped malware.
