Halliburton probes impact of cyber attack with law enforcement, ET CISO

Halliburton probes impact of cyber attack with law enforcement, ET CISO

Top U.S. oilfield services firm Halliburton said on Friday it was working with law enforcement to determine the extent of a computer systems breach and was yet to determine if the incident would have a material impact on its business.

The $23-billion company became aware of the cyber attack on Wednesday, it said in its first securities filing about the breach, adding its “ongoing investigation and response included restoration of its systems and assessment of materiality.”

The company also said it had taken certain systems offline to protect them.

A spokesperson declined to comment on whether the company had been contacted by the people behind the breach.

Reuters was the first to report about the cyber attack on Wednesday.

The attack appeared to impact business operations at the company’s north Houston campus as well as some global connectivity networks, a person familiar with the matter said.

The company had also asked some staff not to connect to internal networks, the source said.

The U.S. Department of Energy said on Thursday the Halliburton cyber incident had not impacted any energy services.

What is Firewall? A Firewall is a network security device that monitors and filters incoming and outgoing network traffic based on an organization's previously established security policies. At its most basic, a firewall is essentially the barrier that sits between a private internal network and the public Internet.

 

Secure your network at the gateway against threats such as intrusions, Viruses, Spyware, Worms, Trojans, Adware, Keyloggers, Malicious Mobile Code (MMC), and other dangerous applications for total protection in a convenient, affordable subscription-based service. Modern threats like web-based malware attacks, targeted attacks, application-layer attacks, and more have had a significantly negative effect on the threat landscape. In fact, more than 80% of all new malware and intrusion attempts are exploiting weaknesses in applications, as opposed to weaknesses in networking components and services. Stateful firewalls with simple packet filtering capabilities were efficient blocking unwanted applications as most applications met the port-protocol expectations. Administrators could promptly prevent an unsafe application from being accessed by users by blocking the associated ports and protocols.
