The Current State Of Cyber Defense
Dr. Eric Cole, CEO of Secure Anchor Consulting, considered to be one of the Nation’s Top Cyber Security Experts, advising President Obama, the CIA, Bill Gates, McAfee, & Lockheed Martin, author of many books on cyber-security participates in Risk Roundup to discuss the “Current State of Cyber Defense.”
Risk Roundup Webcast: The Current State of Cyber Defense
Cyber Defense
When security risks
from cyberspace, merge, and converge with aquaspace, geospace, and space (CAGS),
building effective cyber defense has never been more critical for individuals
and entities across nations: its government, industries, organizations, and
academia (NGIOA) than it is now.
As we see today, the heightened risk and fragility from cyberspace is threatening to reverse major development gains for nations across CAGS. So, the question is, if countries are to protect their hard-fought progress and development, how should they build a cyber defense? What is the essential requirement to build a cyber defense?
It seems that the
ability to defend in cyberspace depends upon organizations’ ability to
anticipate, absorb, adapt to, and rapidly recover from any potentially
disruptive cybersecurity event. It is said that Resilience is the first line of
defense, even in cyberspace. It is therefore essential to:
- Establish cyber-security
checkpointsAssure continuity of digital
servicesEstablish a resilient
cyber supply chainRestrict uncontrolled
movement of cyber weaponsCreate resilient cyber
resourcesDevelop an ability to
deal with interconnected cybersecurity risks and casualtiesEstablish resilient
cyber communications systemsCreate resilient CAGS
systems
The commitment towards
cyber defense is based on the recognition that the cybersecurity environment
has changed, and that the resilience of cyberspace is the first line of defense
for today’s interconnected CAGS ecosystem.
Since cybersecurity risk,
resilience, and defense preparedness walk hand in hand, nations will thrive
when all of its components know how to build an effective cyber defense. The
question is:
- Do we understand the
baseline requirements of cyber defense?Do we know who is involved in cyber defense and preparedness?
Current State
To build resiliency in cyber initiatives and connected CAGS infrastructures, it requires developing and maintaining individual and collective capacity to resist and defend against cyber-attacks. This involves creating, maintaining, and supporting a well-organized cyber defense and resiliency plan. The question is:
- Do nations have well
organized cyber defense plan?What is the current state of cyber defense globally? How should cyber defense be addressed under the
circumstances?How should nations plan cyber defense posture? Do nations have cyber defense best practices? Are they shared
with everyone?
Due to cyberspace, the nature of security risks has evolved in not only cyberspace but also aquaspace, geospace, and space! To be able to understand what is at risk and how to be resilient and build a defense, NGIOA decision-makers must first know what assets they are protecting. The question is whether the decision-makers understand the true nature of the assets they are protecting.
