The Cassandra Panel: OT Threat Intelligence from April to Now
Bryan Singer revisits an April threat briefing to ask what changed in six months, and the answer is a lot. Georgia Tech's Saman Zonouz shares research on thousands of internet-exposed PLCs, web-enabled controllers, shared firmware code across vendors, and exposed solar inverters. Daryl Haegley explains why threat intel has to start with knowing what's inside the fence, and Brad Willet brings the asset owner's view: stray contractor routers, insider risk, and why no newsletter replaces a trusted network. Vivek dubbed it "the Cassandra Panel" for a reason.
Guests: Saman Zonouz (Georgia Tech); Daryl Haegley (United States Department of the Air Force); Brad Willet (UPS) Host / moderator: Bryan Singer (Accenture)
