A specialized version of the MITRE ATT&CK framework focusing on adversary tactics and techniques in industrial control environments. MITRE ATT&CK is a globally accessible knowledge base of cyber adversary behavior, and the ICS variant maps out how attackers specifically target ICS/OT (for example, techniques like Manipulation of Control, Spoof Reporting Message, etc.). This framework helps defenders understand potential attacker methods (like “replay attack on protocol” or “ICS-specific ransomware”) and to ensure detection and response capabilities for each stage. It’s basically a reference of “what bad guys do in ICS” organized systematically.
