I finally found the time to read through ODNI's 2024 Worldwide Threat Assessment and was not surprised to see Cyber and AI spread throughout the findings. The list of bad actors is nothing surprising but it definitely seems like they are getting more aggressive. I've excerpted the highlights below. I bet you don't get past page 11 before your check to make sure your systems are patched... 📚 Source: https://lnkd.in/gm3fp25U 🇨🇳 China remains the most active and persistent cyber threat to U.S. Government, private-sector, and critical infrastructure networks. Beijing’s cyber espionage pursuits and its industry’s export of surveillance, information, and communications technologies increase the threats of aggressive cyber operations against the United States and the suppression of the free flow of information in cyberspace. 🇷🇺 Russia will pose an enduring global cyber threat even as it prioritizes cyber operations for the Ukrainian war. Moscow views cyber disruptions as a foreign policy lever to shape other countries’ decisions and continuously refines and employs its espionage, influence, and attack capabilities against a variety of targets. 🇮🇷 Iran’s growing expertise and willingness to conduct aggressive cyber operations make it a major threat to the security of U.S. and allied and partner networks and data. Tehran’s opportunistic approach to cyber attacks puts U.S. infrastructure at risk for being targeted, particularly as its previous attacks against Israeli targets show that Iran is willing to target countries with stronger cyber capabilities than itself. Iran will continue to conduct malign influence operations in the Middle East and in other regions, including trying to undermine U.S. political processes and amplify discord. 🇰🇵 North Korea’s cyber program will pose a sophisticated and agile espionage, cybercrime, and attack threat. Pyongyang’s cyber forces have matured and are fully capable of achieving a variety of strategic objectives against diverse targets, including a wider target set in the United States and South Korea. 👨💻 Transnational organized criminals involved in ransomware operations are improving their attacks, extorting funds, disrupting critical services, and exposing sensitive data. Important U.S. services and critical infrastructure such as health care, schools, and manufacturing continue to experience ransomware attacks; however, weak cyber defenses, coupled with efforts to digitize economies, have made low-income countries’ networks also attractive targets. #patchyoursystems #truststack #cyber

"The legacy perimeter security model is dead" How many times have you heard something like this said? In many ways, it is true, the effectiveness of a singular approach of one overarching perimeter or boundary is indeed flawed. That said, I think it would be more appropriate to say the perimeter security model has, or should evolve. It does so through our approach to manage data flows, macro/micro segmentation, software defined networking and contextual access control. In fact, that is the same case the National Security Agency makes in their latest "Cybersecurity Information Sheet - Zero Trust Network Environment Pillar" publication. Much like broader zero trust, all of the above mentioned activities exist on a maturity spectrum, from basic to advanced, as do the other pillars of zero trust. Organizations of all shapes and sizes deal with unique constraints from technical, resourcing, timelines and more. If you're looking to bolster your zero trust maturity in the networking and environment domain, you'll want to dig into this latest publication to ensure you're headed in the right direction. #cybersecurity #zerotrust #ciso

Contegix TrustStack > P1. Sat down and got the breakdown of TrustStack and I was so impressed how most P1 issues are a cake walk for TS. Hopefully we see more DoD entities move over.
