Peterson, Control Systems Must Be Scanned!
Author: Dave Lewis
Yes, I’m serious. Not only must control systems be scanned, but they must be scanned aggressively to determine if servers and workstations can be taken down or have their integrity compromised.

- Lack of redundancy
- Lack of recovery
- Improper scanning methodology
An excellent post by Dale Peterson from Digital Bond. Read on.
