This Security Ledger podcast report describes a sophisticated, targeted cyber attack using custom TRITON/TRISIS malware that infected Schneider Electric Triconex safety instrument system (SIS) controllers at an industrial facility (reportedly in Saudi Arabia), a threat with potential to cause physical harm; the episode also reviews leaked allegations of Kaspersky-FSB cooperation and the resulting U.S. ban on Kaspersky software, and discusses application-security trends following Contrast Security's funding.
