Cyberattacks exploiting data center infrastructure management (DCIM) software vulnerabilities could be more likely than many operators realize. Reports of common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVE) of well-known DCIM products are increasing, while ransomware incidents on critical data center infrastructure surge (see Ransomware incidents on OT equipment surge).
DCIM software is an attractive target for cybercriminals seeking to disrupt data center operations or use facility networks as entry points to infiltrate corporate systems. DCIM sits in the “grey space” between IT and facilities, where there can be unclear lines of responsibility for tasks, including cybersecurity of operational software.
