This Alert Is From MOXA

As Industrial IoT (IIoT) adoption continues to proliferate, cybersecurity has become one of the top priorities. The Moxa Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) takes a proactive approach to protect products from cybersecurity vulnerabilities. Moxa PSIRT investigates all reports of vulnerabilities that could potentially affect Moxa products. Moxa created a vulnerability management policy to provide guidance and information to our customers in the event of a reported vulnerability. The management policy ensures that Moxa’s customers have steady, unambiguous resources to help them understand how Moxa resolves or mitigates reported vulnerabilities. For any queries, please email [email protected].

On October 2017, security vulnerabilities were disclosed in WPA2 (Wi-Fi protected Access II), which made it possible for a user to eavesdrop on Wi-Fi traffic that utilized WPA2. An attacker within the wireless range of a Wi-Fi network can exploit these vulnerabilities using key reinstallation attacks (KRACKs).

Moxa's Cyber Security Response Team (CSRT) is fully engaged in this matter and we are taking appropriate action. Our team has been working with all of our product teams to determine which models have been affected.
