Chris Sistrunk<p>📰 Hot off the press 📰<br>---------------------------------------<br>I wrote this article for PowerGrid International magazine and it is to help folks with tuning their ICS /OT / SCADA network security monitoring alerts. 🛠️📉 You don't have to reinvent the wheel!</p><p>***If ICS NSM is in your responsibility, please read this article (link below) I would love to get your feedback.***</p><p>Documentation about tuning ICS NSM systems are rare. ICS NSM solution documentation tends to focus on how to turn on and off the baseline feature, and not go into specifics about how to fine tune the system. </p><p>If you buy an ICS NSM solution and forget it, it will be useless. If a vendor says their sensor/IDS requires no tuning, they are lying to you. An unmanaged and untuned ICS NSM or IDS will create floods of alerts, nuisance alerts, and contributes to alert fatigue for your engineers and SOC analysts.</p><p>Thank you!</p><p>📰: When fine-tuning your cybersecurity alerts, it’s best to focus on the basics<br><a href="https://www.power-grid.com/td/when-fine-tuning-your-cybersecurity-alerts-its-best-to-focus-on-the-basics/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">power-grid.com/td/when-fine-tu</span><span class="invisible">ning-your-cybersecurity-alerts-its-best-to-focus-on-the-basics/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/ICS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ICS</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/OT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OT</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/SCADA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SCADA</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/icssecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>icssecurity</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/otsecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>otsecurity</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/networksecuritymonitoring" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>networksecuritymonitoring</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/NSM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NSM</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/IDS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IDS</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/SOC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SOC</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/SOCAnalysts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SOCAnalysts</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/BlueTeam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BlueTeam</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/tuning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>tuning</span></a></p>
