Rueil-Malmaison, France & Boston - January 9, 2023 - Schneider Electric, the global leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, and BitSight, the leader in detecting and managing cyber risk, today announced a strategic partnership to develop a first-of-its-kind global Operational Technology Risk Identification and Threat Intelligence capability. Schneider Electric and BitSight each see their partnership as an important step in furthering their commitment to improve the security and resilience of their communities - by detecting OT protocols exposed over the internet and contextualizing them with improved attribution. Through a joint effort, Schneider Electric will fuse its deep knowledge of OT protocols and systems with BitSight's market-leading exposure detection and management capabilities in order to generate the critical insights necessary for proactive security monitoring of externally observable risks to the OT community. "We are delighted to be partnering with Schneider Electric on this critically important initiative to better manage the cyber risk of Internet-connected OT systems. Both BitSight and Schneider Electric share the mission of creating trust in the digital economy by improving cybersecurity protection across all interconnected business types and industries," said Stephen Boyer, Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer at BitSight. "Operational Technology systems are often exposed and vulnerable to attackers who can exploit them through connected devices and converging networks. By partnering with Schneider Electric, we are proactively addressing this downstream risk by expanding our capabilities to better detect customers' industrial infrastructure and control systems at risk and to help them improve business resilience." "With the enriched data and insight collected by BitSight, Schneider Electric is developing an OT threat intelligence capability to notify and work with customers who have exposed assets or insecure Internet facing deployments," stated Christophe Blassiau, SVP, Cybersecurity & Global CISO at Schneider Electric. The new capability focused on risk identification and reduction across the entirety of the OT domain is not an exclusive arrangement between BitSight and Schneider Electric.

CAMPBELL, Calif., Jan. 5, 2023 /PRNewswire/ - iCoin Technology, a U.S. based manufacturer of modern crypto hardware wallets, announced today that it will be adding a secure messaging feature to their existing hardware wallet system for cryptocurrency. "One of the problems with existing secure messaging platforms is that they rely on central severs to control message flow and storage. These central severs can be compromised by external or internal threats, including password reset requests. Also, the smartphones or laptops that are used as message endpoints are network connected devices and run multiple applications - which can also expose the messages to attacks. By encrypting and decrypting the messages only on a cold device, like the iCoin hardware wallet, can the users be sure that no one can intercept and read the messages between the sender and receiver." - Chet Silvestri, CEO, iCoin Technology. The iCoin hardware wallet is a cold device which is never directly connected to a network. The messages are directly entered into the hardware wallet and encrypted before ever leaving the wallet. The Secure Messaging feature will be integrated into the iCoin hardware wallet beginning in April 2023 and will also available as a no-cost firmware upgrade for existing iCoin hardware wallet owners at the same time. The iCoin hardware encrypted secure messaging system will allow users to regain some control of their privacy when it comes to personal communications. Headquartered in Silicon Valley, iCoin Technology is a pioneer of a new class of hardware wallets for the digital economy, blending consumer-grade ease-of-use with industrial-strength security.
