Critical Infrastructure Alert: Is your fuel management system exposed?
The NSA, CISA, and federal partners have issued a new, urgent advisory regarding Automatic Tank Gauge (ATG) systems.
Malicious actors are actively exploiting internet-exposed ATG systems which are vital for monitoring fuel and liquid levels across the energy, transportation, and retail sectors. Unauthorized access to these devices poses a significant risk to operational continuity and safety.
Key Takeaways for Operators:
1- Audit Exposure: Ensure your ATG systems are not directly accessible from the public internet.
2- Harden Infrastructure: Implement strict access controls, use VPNs for remote access, and change default credentials immediately.
3- Monitor: Review logs for unauthorized access attempts.
Cybersecurity is not just an IT issue; it’s a core component of operational resilience. Read the full joint fact sheet to ensure your systems are hardened against these threats.
