Whoa. An Iranian APT group hanging out in a CNI network for *two whole years*? That’s some next-level persistence, seriously. It really drives home the point that these threat actors aren't messing around.
This is yet another stark reminder that solid security isn't just a 'nice-to-have' – it's absolutely non-negotiable. Seeing them use classic tactics like snagged VPN credentials, web shells, and backdoors might seem like standard stuff, but it's incredibly dangerous. And things get *really* critical when they start poking around Operational Technology (OT) systems.
Honestly, it baffles me why so many organizations still seem to struggle with the fundamentals. Patch management, proper network segmentation, multi-factor authentication... shouldn't these just be standard operating procedure by now?
What do you think? What are the weakest links you see in CNI security these days? Let me know your thoughts below!
