SAN FRANCISCO -- RSA CONFERENCE 2013 – The oil and gas industry now has at its disposal a SCADA security test laboratory for testing just how their environments would hold up -- or not -- to today's attacks. The so-called Industrial Control System (ICS) Sandbox, based in Montreal, aims to simulate real-world effects of attacks on critical infrastructure to help power plants and other operators better lock down their environments.

Modulo, a leading provider of IT governance, risk and compliance (GRC) solutions, announced today a Vendor Risk Management solution for enterprises to identify and classify high risk vendors and cloud providers as well as streamline the risk and compliance evaluation process. The product comes fully integrated with the Shared Assessments Standard Information Gathering (“SIG”) questionnaire – a robust and easy-to-use industry standard template for gathering and assessing IT, operating and security risks and controls in an information technology environment.

Interview with Modulo CEO Sergio Thompson

Automating governance, risk and compliance reduces vulnerabilities that can have an adverse impact on the bottom line, says Sergio Thompson-Flores, chief executive of Modulo, a provider of GRC offerings.

In an interview, Thompson:

- Provides background on the 28-year-old company;

- Explains the benefits of GRC automation;

- Discusses how customers automate GRC to take risk and compliance evaluations and collate them with physical and operational compliance and risk.

Before leading Modulo, Thompson was a principal and founding partner of Brazil's Worldinvest, a financial advisory and business development firm. Prior to Worldinvest, he was the managing director of a Brazilian development bank. He also served in Brazil's Foreign Service as a diplomat and held a senior position in the Brazilian Finance Ministry.

Threats that affect more than one company can also lead to systemic improvements in entire vertical industries, such as what happened with Stuxnet. When the worm broke out of its bounds and spread from Iranian facilities to Indonesia, India, the United States and beyond, control system operators the world over began taking a close look at their networks, says Doug Powell, manager of security privacy and safety at BC Hydro in Canada, and chair of the critical infrastructure working group at ASIS, an organization for security professionals.
