Hi and welcome to Cyber Reasons Malicious Life. I'm Ran Levin.

Today we've got somewhat different episode for you. Instead of talking about

Ransomware, D-D-D-D-D-Sattacks and many other threats that we usually cover in

malicious life will turn our attention to the world of

industrial cyber security and a potentially much more dangerous threat, hacking into the control systems of a nuclear power plant.

It is a risk that, oddly, does not receive its fair share of attention compared to the daily

headlines about data breaches to multinational organizations.

Perhaps because most of us have no idea about the inner workings of a nuclear facility, the systems that control its functions and

their potential weaknesses.

So in this episode, we'll hear an interview with Andrew Ginter,

VP of Industrial Security at Waterfall Security Solutions

by Nate Nelson, our senior producer.

We had Andrew in our show several times in the past, since he is a fantastic and insightful

expert in that relatively unknown branch of cyber security.

As some of you might already know, Andrew and Nate are also the hosts of our, might say, sister

podcast, the Industrial Security Podcast, which is a bi-weekly show that focuses on cyber security in industrial

facilities such as power plants, petrochemical facilities, even mining and airlines.

If you find industrial cybersecurity interesting,

So without further ado here are Nate and Andrew discussing cyber security at nuclear

power plants. How protected are modern nuclear facilities? Have there ever been cases of hacked power plants?
