Update Summary
This updated advisory is a follow-up to the original advisory titled ICSA-22-342-02 AVEVA InTouch Access Anywhere, published December 8, 2022 on the ICS webpage at cisa.gov/topics/industrial-control-systems.
Risk evaluation
Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could allow an unauthenticated user to read files on the system, execute arbitrary code, or create a denial-of-service condition.
Critical infrastructure sectors
Critical Manufacturing
Countries/areas deployed
Worldwide
Company headquarters location
United Kingdom
Recommended Practices
CISA recommends users take defensive measures to minimize the risk of exploitation of this vulnerability. Specifically, users should: Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and/or systems, and ensure they are not accessible from the Internet; Locate control system networks and remote devices behind firewalls and isolate them from the business network; When remote access is required, use secure methods, such as Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), recognizing VPNs may have vulnerabilities and should be updated to the most current version available. Also recognize VPN is only as secure as its connected devices.
Recommended Practices
Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and/or systems, and ensure they are not accessible from the Internet.
Recommended Practices
Locate control system networks and remote devices behind firewalls and isolate them from business networks.
Recommended Practices

Recommended Practices
CISA reminds organizations to perform proper impact analysis and risk assessment prior to deploying defensive measures.
Recommended Practices
CISA also provides a section for control systems security recommended practices on the ICS webpage at cisa.gov/ics. Several CISA products detailing cyber defense best practices are available for reading and download, including Improving Industrial Control Systems Cybersecurity with Defense-in-Depth Strategies.
Recommended Practices
Additional mitigation guidance and recommended practices are publicly available on the ICS webpage at cisa.gov/ics in the technical information paper, ICS-TIP-12-146-01B--Targeted Cyber Intrusion Detection and Mitigation Strategies.
Recommended Practices
Organizations observing suspected malicious activity should follow established internal procedures and report findings to CISA for tracking and correlation against other incidents.
