Siemens SINEC NMS Vulnerabilities: A Hacker’s Delight – Update Now!

CISA will no longer update ICS security advisories for Siemens product vulnerabilities beyond the initial advisory. For the latest on Siemens’ vulnerabilities, consult Siemens’ ProductCERT Security Advisories. Remember, outdated security is like wearing a medieval helmet in a modern warzone—hilarious but ineffective.

Hot Take:

**_So, Siemens is like that one friend who gives you just enough help to get started and then leaves you hanging. Starting January 10, 2023, CISA is treating Siemens ICS security advisories like a New Year’s resolution—initial enthusiasm followed by radio silence. For real-time updates, you’re on your own to check Siemens’ ProductCERT Security Advisories. Guess we’re all getting a crash course in self-reliance!_**

Key Points:

– CISA will no longer update ICS security advisories for Siemens beyond the initial advisory.
