Our solution incorporates the mBNS, a certified layer-2 tactical appliance with low latency of just a few nanoseconds.
With its passwordless cryptography and invisibility to cyber attackers, the BNS creates a secure communication channel while effectively separating the autonomous vehicle’s environment from the operator.
It achieves this through advanced features like filtering, deep packet and intrusion inspection, prevention mechanisms, and micro-segmentation.

Through the implementation of the BNS, we guarantee the safe and secure operation of autonomous vehicle teleoperation.
We invite you to watch the video and witness this firsthand.

We are thrilled to announce that ES Embedded Solutions 3000 LTD, has been selected by the Ashdod Port Company to undertake several cyber security POC projects. We are extremely honored to have been chosen to enter the tender.

This opportunity is a significant milestone for us, and we are excited and motivated to start the process of proving the feasibility of these projects. I would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to the Ashdod Port Company teams for putting their trust in us and giving us this chance to showcase our expertise.

We believe that with the implementation of Bit-Net Sentry (BNS) which provides invisible cybersecurity, white box cryptography, artificial neural networks, and adherence to the IRC 62243 standard to protect critical utilities, we can make a significant impact on the security of the Ashdod port.

We are excited to participate in the events of the Israeli Cyber Forum, the Chamber of Commerce, and the Israeli Hi-Tech Association. We look forward to tackling cyber challenges in the year 2023 🙂

I’m repeating, again and again, the mantra that “password-based security is attackable” and thus secure communication like VPN is vulnerable. Es Embedded Solutions 3000, is leading the new standard of WBC (White Box Cryptography) that adds a layer of passwordless secure communication.

Below I’ll elaborate on the Colonial Pipeline cyberattack and its severity, that caused due to a single leaked VPN password.

I decided to write these lines as today (June 9, 2021), I came across the memo of Ms. Anne Neuberger, Deputy National Security Advisor, Cyber & Emerging Tech at National Security Council, The White House.

In only two short pages Ms. Anne is urging corporate executives and business leaders to take immediate steps to prepare for ransomware attacks, warning that cybercriminals are shifting from stealing data to disrupting core operations.

“The threats are serious and they are increasing… The private sector also has a critical responsibility to protect against these threats. All organizations must recognize that no company is safe from being targeted by ransomware, regardless of size or location,” Neuberger wrote.

One of the triggers to publish this memo is the cyberattack on Colonial Pipeline!

“The attack has been attributed to DarkSide, a criminal hacker group based in Eastern Europe. The pipeline, which supplies about half of the East Coast’s gasoline, went down for several days, causing gas panic-buying, shortages, and price spikes in some states. It appears to be the largest ever cyberattack on an American energy system and yet another example of cybersecurity vulnerabilities that President Joe Biden has promised to address.”  https://www.vox.com/recode/22428774/ransomeware-pipeline-colonial-darkside-gas-prices

Colonial Pipeline reported the breach happened due to a single leaked VPN (Virtual Private Network) password!

For a deeper understanding of the WBC passwordless concept and how it could prevent cyberattacks like happened to the Colonial Pipeline fill out this form and we’ll get back to you shortly.

Have a look at the following Prediction 2021 article on the Cyber Security Middle East edition of Enterprise Security Magazine.

It focuses on the predicted growth of demand for:

1. WBC (White Box Cryptography)  technology-based solutions (e.g. secure tunnels, VPN and IPSEC)
2. Shielded firewalls
3. Secured bi-directional SCADA solutions for the Industry 4.0 sector

2021 is going to be busy for Embedded Solutions 3000 thanks to recent breakthroughs

The “Israel Defense Magazine” has published this article about a cyber-attack against the water supply infrastructure of the city of Oldsmar, FL.
An attacker remotely accessed the water treatment system and for a short time increased the amount of sodium hydroxide by a factor of more than 100.
If the attacker would also have changed the status sent from the sensor it would be successful, luckily the attacker didn’t do that.
The BNS appliances prevent such attacks by
(1) a dedicated virtual channel to monitor the abnormal activity of hazard materials
(2) preventing unauthorized remote access to the water operational network
(3) being invisible to the attacker
(4) create a passwordless secured tunnel to the hazard material controller.
Recently we see an increase in requests from water-critical utilities which are choosing to use BNS technology.

Our very own CTO, Dr. Larisa Tsirinsky, published yesterday an academic paper defining the White-Box Cryptography secured tunneling.

Keep the guards

Protect the organization’s firewall – and prevent Trojan Horses

Hackers’ attacks on factories, organizations, and even countries are rapidly growing, and sometimes the firewall that is supposed to protect the system is the weak link. The Israeli company ES Embedded Solutions 3000 was one of the first in the world to present a solution to the problem.

Recently we have witnessed many hacker attacks, whether it be companies in the industrial sector, the insurance sector, vital infrastructure and more. “In many cases, this is a ransomware attack, such as in the case of a large insurance company and a FAB in the north,” says Yaron Mintzker from ES Embedded Solutions 3000, which provides information security solutions.

“Such attacks lock the entire company or enterprise, which is shut down until the information is restored or the ransom paid; and in addition, the hackers gain access to the company’s most sensitive information, having managed to bypass all layers of protection.”

Fortinet, one of the world’s leading firewall solution providers, recently announced that 49,000 VPN passwords of its customers (including government organizations and banks) have leaked out, and may have reached hostile parties. A similar problem also exists in industrial systems (SCADA), which are installed in sensitive infrastructures, such as factories, electrical installations, water utilities, and more.

The product developed by Embedded Solutions combines (WBC) White-Box Cryptography technologies, Layer 2 filtering, protocol independence, and network invisibility designed to handle such cases and provide the possibility of secure two-way communication while preventing attacks on the firewall seeking to open a “back door”.

According to Mintzker, “Existing defense tools like firewalls are also vulnerable to cyber-attacks. In most cases, it is phishing – someone who managed to gain access to the organization quite easily. It is enough that an employee would click on a link or open a file, or get some money to provide access to hackers. This is how a Trojan horse enters the system and enables the hackers to sabotage the company’s information and, in the case of critical infrastructure, carry out a terrorist attack.

“Our solution also protects the defense tools themselves from external attacks. The BNS itself does not have IP and MAC addresses so it is transparent, it cannot be seen and attacked. It provides external and internal protection, so in the case of a phishing attack that managed to enter the organization, it closes the breach and stops the hackers. “

In addition, says Mintzker, “we address the problem of many organizations who protect the communication between their branches by using SSL and VPN, such secure communication has an external password which is vulnerable. The BNS enhances the secure tunneling with WBC technology that is independent with no such external password keys at all, which are the weak points. “

“ES Embedded Solutions 3000 has been operating in this market for 18 years, In fact, we developed WBC solutions even before they were called that.”
