A medida que las operaciones se automatizan, se conectan y se basan en datos, los ciberataques ya no se limitan al robo de informaci\u00f3n. Pueden interrumpir la producci\u00f3n, perturbar las cadenas de suministro y comprometer la seguridad de los trabajadores. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.interpol.int\/News-and-Events\/News\/2025\/New-INTERPOL-report-warns-of-sharp-rise-in-cybercrime-in-Africa?utm_\">Informe de Evaluaci\u00f3n de Ciberamenazas en \u00c1frica 2025 de INTERPOL<\/a> cuantifica el riesgo: la ciberdelincuencia representa actualmente m\u00e1s del 30% de los delitos denunciados en \u00c1frica Occidental y Oriental, con unas p\u00e9rdidas estimadas en todo el continente de m\u00e1s de US$3 mil millones desde 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>El fin de las operaciones aisladas<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Durante muchos a\u00f1os, los entornos de tecnolog\u00eda operativa (OT) estuvieron en gran medida separados de los sistemas de TI corporativos, lo que limitaba su exposici\u00f3n a las amenazas externas. Hoy en d\u00eda, esa separaci\u00f3n ha desaparecido casi por completo. Las operaciones modernas de miner\u00eda y de petr\u00f3leo y gas dependen del flujo de informaci\u00f3n entre los sistemas operativos, las aplicaciones empresariales, los entornos en la nube y los usuarios remotos. En toda \u00c1frica, estas empresas est\u00e1n adoptando el IoT industrial, la automatizaci\u00f3n, las plataformas en la nube y las operaciones remotas para mejorar la eficiencia y la productividad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sin embargo, el aumento de la conectividad significa que los incidentes cibern\u00e9ticos ya no se limitan a los sistemas tecnol\u00f3gicos; se han convertido en eventos empresariales. En una industria donde el tiempo de inactividad se mide en millones en lugar de minutos, la resiliencia cibern\u00e9tica se ha vuelto esencial para la continuidad del negocio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Los acontecimientos recientes demuestran cu\u00e1n interconectados se han vuelto estos riesgos. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mining.com\/op-ed-what-the-scope-systems-cyber-attack-reveals-about-minings-digital-fragility\/?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">ataque de ransomware<\/a> El ataque al proveedor australiano de tecnolog\u00eda minera Scope Systems interrumpi\u00f3 los servicios de planificaci\u00f3n de recursos empresariales (ERP) utilizados por decenas de empresas mineras, lo que demuestra c\u00f3mo un \u00fanico proveedor externo puede tener consecuencias en todo el sector. Las empresas mineras africanas se enfrentan al mismo desaf\u00edo. A medida que las operaciones se vuelven m\u00e1s conectadas y dependientes de socios tecnol\u00f3gicos especializados, la ciberresiliencia debe extenderse mucho m\u00e1s all\u00e1 de la red propia de una organizaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El mayor riesgo al que se enfrentan muchas organizaciones es la suposici\u00f3n de que la ciberseguridad es un problema de TI, cuando en realidad es un riesgo operativo fundamental. Esta suposici\u00f3n se hace m\u00e1s evidente en qui\u00e9n es considerado responsable de asegurar el entorno despu\u00e9s de una brecha. Hasta que esa pregunta se resuelva por escrito y a nivel de junta directiva, cada control que compre una organizaci\u00f3n se estar\u00e1 implementando en un vac\u00edo de gobernanza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>La ciberresiliencia comienza mucho antes de que ocurra un incidente<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sin embargo, a pesar de estos riesgos crecientes, muchas organizaciones todav\u00eda se acercan <a href=\"https:\/\/liquid.tech\/es\/services\/cyber-security-solutions-and-services\/\">ciberseguridad<\/a> reactivamente. La escasez persistente de habilidades, las limitaciones de conectividad en ubicaciones remotas y los entornos regulatorios fragmentados hacen que la construcci\u00f3n de ciberresiliencia sea particularmente desafiante. Es por esto que las estrategias de ciberseguridad est\u00e1n cambiando de la defensa reactiva a la gesti\u00f3n proactiva de riesgos mediante la monitorizaci\u00f3n continua, la inteligencia de amenazas, la gesti\u00f3n de la exposici\u00f3n y la respuesta r\u00e1pida ante incidentes. Y este cambio comienza con la evaluaci\u00f3n, es decir, evaluaciones estructuradas de riesgos de ciberseguridad, evaluaciones de controles de seguridad y revisiones de la arquitectura de red que ayudan a organizaciones como <a href=\"https:\/\/liquidc2.com\/\">Liquid C2<\/a> comprender mejor las vulnerabilidades de sus clientes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">La tecnolog\u00eda es solo una parte de la soluci\u00f3n, ya que muchos ataques exitosos todav\u00eda tienen como objetivo a las personas a trav\u00e9s del *phishing*, la ingenier\u00eda social y el robo de credenciales. Con demasiada frecuencia, los programas de concienciaci\u00f3n sobre seguridad se convierten en ejercicios de cumplimiento m\u00e1s que en esfuerzos reales para cambiar el comportamiento; construir resiliencia requiere educaci\u00f3n continua, pruebas y refuerzo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>La gobernanza decide d\u00f3nde recae el riesgo<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Los grupos mineros, petroleros y de gas rara vez operan en un solo pa\u00eds. Una misma organizaci\u00f3n puede gestionar instalaciones en varias jurisdicciones, cada una con sus propios requisitos de protecci\u00f3n de datos y notificaci\u00f3n de incidentes. El riesgo no es el papeleo. Es que la seguridad termine aplic\u00e1ndose de manera desigual de un sitio a otro, y un incidente en el m\u00e1s vulnerable pueda pasar desapercibido hasta que haya afectado al resto del negocio. La preparaci\u00f3n para el cumplimiento normativo cierra esa brecha, raz\u00f3n por la cual el enfoque Secure360 de Liquid C2 comienza por la gobernanza en lugar de la tecnolog\u00eda. Un est\u00e1ndar aplicado de manera uniforme en todas las operaciones y una visi\u00f3n clara de d\u00f3nde se encuentra realmente expuesta la organizaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Muchas operaciones en todo el continente funcionan sin un ejecutivo de seguridad dedicado, lo que significa que las decisiones de riesgo recaen en quien est\u00e9 disponible en lugar de en quien sea responsable. Los modelos de CISO virtual y el desarrollo de estrategias de ciberseguridad estructuradas son cada vez m\u00e1s la forma en que las organizaciones cierran esa brecha sin esperar a una contrataci\u00f3n escasa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Un enfoque hol\u00edstico para la protecci\u00f3n contra las ciberamenazas<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A medida que las empresas mineras aceleran su transformaci\u00f3n digital, la adopci\u00f3n de una estrategia de ciberseguridad hol\u00edstica es esencial para la resiliencia. Proteger las operaciones requiere integrar la gobernanza, la gesti\u00f3n de riesgos, la visibilidad continua en TI y TO, la detecci\u00f3n proactiva de amenazas y una respuesta a incidentes bien practicada. Este enfoque integral ayuda a las organizaciones a anticiparse, resistir y recuperarse de amenazas sofisticadas, garantizando operaciones seguras y continuas. El portafolio Secure360 de Liquid C2 ejemplifica esto al integrar la gobernanza, el riesgo y el cumplimiento como la base para una defensa y soluciones eficaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A medida que el sector minero, petrolero y gas\u00edfero de \u00c1frica se encuentra cada vez m\u00e1s conectado, la integraci\u00f3n de la ciberresiliencia en el dise\u00f1o operativo y la gobernanza es fundamental. Las organizaciones que adopten medidas integrales de ciberseguridad estar\u00e1n mejor posicionadas para proteger a su personal, sostener la producci\u00f3n y respaldar el crecimiento a largo plazo. Los actores de la industria deben priorizar un enfoque hol\u00edstico de la ciberseguridad para mejorar la resiliencia y la seguridad operativa.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ignus De Villiers, Managing Executive, Cyber Security at Liquid C2 Africa\u2019s mining, oil and gas sector is becoming one of the continent\u2019s most attractive targets for cyber criminals.
