The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has published a series of resources designed to help critical infrastructure organizations reduce internet attack surfaces that are visible to anyone on web-based search platforms. CISA calls this program “Get your Stuff Off Search” and focuses much of its attention on the risks posed to exposed industrial control systems and the potential for impacts to public safety, human life, and national security. As CISA notes, many device owners and operators may not realize their devices are partially or fully exposed and can be found on the public internet. To help address these vulnerabilities, CISA highlights three publicly-available tools organizations can use to identify internet-accessible devices, which include Shodan, Censys, and Thingful. It also provides how-to guides for each of these tools. Access the “Get Your Stuff Off Search” resources at CISA.
