When it comes to cybersecurity and the Department of Defense (DoD), a few key points come to mind: 1. Critical Infrastructure Protection: The DoD's increasing reliance on interconnected systems, from satellites to command-and-control networks, means that cybersecurity is crucial to protecting critical infrastructure. A breach could not only compromise national security but also disrupt essential military operations. 2. The Evolving Threat Landscape: Cyber threats are continually evolving, with adversaries using more sophisticated tactics like AI-driven attacks and supply chain vulnerabilities. The DoD must stay ahead by investing in cutting-edge cybersecurity technologies and training personnel to identify and mitigate these advanced threats. 3. Collaboration and Information Sharing: Effective cybersecurity in the DoD requires close collaboration with other government agencies, private sector partners, and allied nations. Sharing threat intelligence and best practices is vital for creating a unified defense against common adversaries. #CyberDefense #DoDCybersecurity #CriticalInfrastructure #CyberThreats #NationalSecurity #InfoSec #AdvancedThreats #CyberResilience #MilitaryCyber #TechAndSecurity

It’s a wrap at #CyCon2024!    Robust port and #maritime #cybersecurity is essential for national and international security, military readiness, and efficient supply chains.   The session highlighted the deficiencies in port cybersecurity, examining root causes and sharing perspectives from various stakeholders.   Key take-aways: ➡ Ports face significant cybersecurity challenges due to complex systems with outdated hardware and a mix of new and legacy software. ➡ Cybersecurity in ports is often underfunded, leading to inadequate training and vulnerabilities, especially in developing regions. ➡ Both civilian and military sectors face universal cybersecurity risks, underscoring the need for comprehensive and improved measures.   Read summary on our web: https://lnkd.in/djhRA-jr    Thank you NATO Cooperative Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence (CCDCOE) CyCon2024 conference & panelists Marie Haugli-Sandvik, Lisbeth Laurie, Gabriel Raicu, Christophe Van Maele and Mike Widmann, and moderator Silja-Madli Ossip!

Two years on from its initial establishment, the Cyber Defense Assistance Collaborative (CDAC) threat intelligence sharing platform—led by the ThreatQuotient team and supported by Recorded Future, Cyber Threat Alliance, Mandiant (now part of Google Cloud), Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and others—marks another significant stride in CDAC’s ongoing mission, addressing the need for collaborative and real-time threat intelligence to Ukraine. This is a groundbreaking effort in terms of tailored intelligence support coming from a multinational set of private sector players and governmental organizations fused together to help Ukraine in the ongoing conflict. Thanks to all CDAC participants for their ongoing support and dedication to this critical work.

Public-private partnerships are a regular topic in government and international cyber strategy discussions -- but we can't always define the term nor explain precisely what they're supposed to do, nor how they're supposed to do it. So here's an example of a public-private partnership in action: CDAC cyber threat intelligence-sharing in support of Ukraine. Slava Ukraina!

Achieving DoDIN Approved Product Listing has been a major focus for Endace and a great amount of effort has taken place behind the scenes to get there. With this APL certification, it becomes easier for US federal agencies to deploy EndaceProbes on their networks. It also makes it simpler for US federal agencies to comply with mandatory packet capture requirements, such as M-21-31. #packetcapture #cybersecurity #m2131 #Cybersecurity #DoDINAPL #NetworkVisibility #EndaceProbes #m2131 https://lnkd.in/gwBbiZ_i

The Czech and German governments recently revealed a long-standing cyber espionage effort by the Russian-associated APT28, utilizing a known vulnerability in Microsoft Outlook (CVE-2023-23397). This breach has prompted serious concerns and strong responses from the European Union, NATO, and governmental bodies in the UK and US, emphasizing the critical need for vigilant cybersecurity practices globally. The vulnerability affected various sectors, including logistics, armaments, and IT services, indicating the broad and complex nature of these cyber threats. To safeguard your operations, it's crucial to apply security updates promptly, enable multi-factor authentication, and provide ongoing security training for your teams. #CensysGPT #Cybersecurity #MicrosoftOutlook #APT28 #DataProtection #ITSecurity
