BUILDING CYBER RESILIENCE

Cyberattacks on critical infrastructure, such as the Colonial Pipeline, are increasing in frequency and size. Concurrently, infrastructure operators are implementing new technologies that increase efficiencies, but these could also make their assets more vulnerable to cyberattacks. How can the industry embrace digital adoption while managing cyberthreats? What can be done about zero-day exploits—that is, cyberattacks that occur the same day a vulnerability is discovered by a hacker? What preventive strategies might reduce downtime?

What we witnessed last night is the most serious attack on Danish critical infrastructure to date. This says something about the times we live in and what we as a society need to be prepared to handle

- We certainly do not exclude any options regarding who is behind this. And it is clear that this ties into the developments we have observed recently with other drone attacks, airspace violations, and cyberattacks on European airports.

A woman waiting in line at the bake sale at St. Martin the Archangel Ukrainian Catholic Church in Jenkintown, PA on Saturday March 19, 2022 was intently swiping away at a “2048”type of online game called “Play for Ukraine” on her smart phone. The event, attended by several hundred, if not more than a thousand, people waiting in a long line to purchase pierogis, borscht, sausage, roasted potatoes, sauerkraut, cakes and pastries was raising money for medical supplies and also for equipment for the Ukrainian military. Five stations inside the social building accommodated the patient crowd. Outside, re-enactors dressed in 17th century costumes had a tent display and talked about the close historical and geo-political ties Ukraine has had with neighbors such as Poland.

 

“It’s a serious game” the woman said and pointed out how many attacks the game notified her she had made on the Russian military. She had accessed the game through the official Ukrainian Facebook site. According to several news reports, the game is part of Ukraine’s effort to recruit the vibrant Ukrainian crypto community into a volunteer IT army. Reports say nearly 300,000 volunteers have been organized through the Telegram messaging app and, using VPN,and are tasked with different missions.

 

“It doesn’t matter whether I win or no,” the woman said as she busily doubled 2s to 4s, 4s to 8s, etc. According to media source Fast Company, each move a player makes effects a DDOS (Dedicated Denial of Services) attacks on a targeted Russian website. www.fastcompany.com/90732766/ddos-play-for-ukraine-russia...

I wonder if you happened to catch the 60 Minutes interview on Easter Sunday called Shields Up or the interview last night with the FBI director, Christopher Wray? Both were great interviews and highlighted the importance of Cybersecurity and the possibility of Russian and China-based Cyberattacks.

 

These countries love Cyberattacks on American-based companies because most companies still believe that no one is looking to harm them. Traditionally, no one wants to invest in solutions they feel won't affect them. I can tell you that it's not a matter of "if" you will be attacked. It is a matter of "when," and it will happen. Before an attack working with a Fractional CIO can save you lots of money in the long run.

 

I know you are skeptical, and you probably should be. Let's talk about that. It would be best if you probably were looking to purchase Cyber Insurance at this time. However, the Cyber Insurance company will want to mitigate their risk by making sure you have minimum security in place.

 

The first part of any solution is pre-planning. Inventory everything and be complete. Make sure everything is on your list. If you use an automated tool to do the inventory, verify everything by doing a Walkthrough of the company. I had seen clients surprised by having equipment for years that they didn't know there and had never used, and they couldn't even remember when or why they bought the hardware.

The exercise, developed and facilitated by the Department of Homeland Security and CISA, involved a notional cyberattack on a water utility. Approximately 75 UW students attended the exercise in which they role-played different agencies with the utility or law enforcement. Exercise participants included the University of Wisconsin, city of Madison water utility, the Milwaukee office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Detachment 1, 176th Cyber Protection Team.
