EKANS Malware Awareness and Guidance

No Software Toolbox application offers an attack vector by which EKANS might infect a system, but it is possible that Software Toolbox products might be impacted on systems that have been infected.

The Software Toolbox team is aware of the EKANS malware that has recently surfaced and is targeting Industrial Control Systems (more information on the malware can be found here: https://dragos.com/blog/industry-news/ekans-ransomware-and-ics-operations/)
 
There are no special considerations that must be taken as it pertains to any Software Toolbox application, and we recommend that you work with your IT group to ensure that your Industrial Control Systems are secured against malware infection and malicious access. As always, please make sure you follow cybersecurity best practices to protect your critical infrastructure against compromise and attack.
