“We need to reduce the blast radius. We need to manage the battlefield. Cyberattacks on chip manufacturers are on the rise. There's a lot that can be done ... to not only prevent attacks but to mitigate them as they happen. Companies can limit the blast radius by setting up choke points throughout the network that isolate the spread of the attack and protect the core assets. For example, take semiconductors, we don't mind as much if someone reads someone's emails. What we want is to stop them gaining access to the assets that produce the wafers. This is done by anticipating the hacker's next move. We want to identify them, hunt them, and eradicate them without impacting operations. We can actually lure the threat actor to waste time in a different network segment where we can do no harm while we shore up defenses around the core assets.”
