SecurityGate Aligns Top Threats with MITRE ATT&CK(R) for ICS Tactics

SecurityGate, the provider of the leading SaaS platform for OT cyber security improvement, today announced it has updated its Top Threats to align with ATT&CK for ICS tactics to stay current with widely recognized industry standards and aid customers in prioritizing a risk management plan. 

“MITRE has worked diligently to understand and catalogue adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures, and the ATT&CK for ICS knowledge base gives defenders a common language to compare and defend from incidents and attacks. The enhancement of the SecurityGate Platform with this information will help risk owners make better decisions towards closing gaps and making remediations,” Bill Lawrence, Chief Information Security Officer of SecurityGate, said.  

The upgraded insight within the Platform’s Top Threats allows SecurityGate’s customers to tap into this industry-wide movement around adversary tactics. The company’s unique mappings allow the insight to be viewed across multiple industry leading frameworks, such as NIST CSF, NIST 800-53 Rev. 5, CMMC, and more. Having the ability to view Top Missing Controls in the Dashboard highlights potential vulnerabilities and helps to prioritize resources and develop coordinated strategies for minimizing risk.  

ATT&CK is a knowledge base of adversarial techniques organized into a set of tactics to help security teams understand pathways and methods from which a hack can be executed. It enables a standardized way to talk internally about security, and this addition gives SecurityGate clients the benefit of sharing a standard lexicon with other security teams and researchers around the world.  

We have seen a need for the adoption of a standard language across threat taxonomy and categorization, and MITRE has been a part of this journey for a number of years. Based on market feedback and adoption, it is a great alignment with our current critical infrastructure standards and frameworks across the Platform,” Cherise Esparza, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer of SecurityGate, said.
