Abstract ransomware is a type of malicious attack where attackers encrypt an organization’s data and demand payment to restore access. Attackers may also steal an organization’s information and demand an additional payment in return for not disclosing the information to authorities, competitors, or the public. This ransomware profile identifies the Cybersecurity Framework Version 1.1 security objectives that support identifying, protecting against, detecting, responding to, and recovering from ransomware events. The profile can be used as a guide to managing the risk of ransomware.

Federal agencies with a lead role to assist and protect one or more of the nation’s 16 critical infrastructures are referred to as sector risk management agencies (SRMAs). The SRMAs for three of the 16 have determined the extent of their sector’s adoption of the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) Framework for Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity (framework). In doing so, lead agencies took actions such as developing sector surveys and conducting technical assessments mapped to framework elements.

After listening to this audiobook, you'll be equipped with all the tools and information you need to have the trouble-free, fast, and secure home network you need. If getting every device in your home on your home network has been a chore, or if you’re putting up with situations like your video streaming services buffering every few moments, your online games kicking you because your Wi-Fi drops, or your Zoom sessions fuzzing out and freezing into that impossible to understand robot voice, then you need to listen to this audiobook!

The internet can be a fearful and frightening place, especially when we hear about things like online identity theft. As scary as they may seem, there are some simple steps that anyone can take to protect ourselves from those dangers. This audiobook will explain what those threats are, and what you can use to guard against being a victim. It’s all broken down in simple terms you can understand. Once you have a basic understanding of how the pieces fit together, you can then protect yourself from danger.

This report evaluates the US Consumer Product Safety Commission’s (CPSC) progress in implementing the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Framework for Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity (CSF). The CSF provides guidelines for organizations to evaluate and improve an agency’s cybersecurity posture. This approach requires management to consider cybersecurity risks as part of the organization’s overall risk management assessment, specifically with a focus on an agency’s cybersecurity risk.

Brought to you by Penguin. Digital spaces are a positive force for change, connection and community, but left unregulated, they are not always safe. Globally, women are 27 times more likely than men to be harassed online. 78% of LGBTQ+ people have experienced hate crime and hate speech online...

Every organization in the United States is at risk from cyber threats that can disrupt essential services and potentially result in impacts to public safety. Over the past year, cyber incidents have impacted many companies, nonprofits, and other organizations, large and small, across multiple sectors of the economy. The identification of destructive malware is particularly alarming given that similar malware has been deployed in the past - e.g., NotPetya and WannaCry ransomware - to cause significant, widespread damage to critical infrastructure.

If you have been abused or are currently a victim of cybercrime harassment, cyberstalking, or cyberbullying and have not yet spoken out, reach toward a safe person and speak your truth. You are strong and courageous, and you deserve to live an abuse-free life. Stand with me, no longer a victim but a survivor.

Cybersecurity experts agree: No one security measure is foolproof to defend against attacks. Ransomware is a new threat. It comes from nowhere and can potentially lock you out of your data and applications until a ransom is paid, making it difficult to recover. These cybercriminals are extremely skilled and motivated. They want to access as much confidential personal information as possible. Security specialists recommend using every tool at your disposal, including draconian measures like backups, encrypting data files, redacting sensitive information on your devices and firewalls.

In The United States of Anonymous, Jeff Kosseff explores how the right to anonymity has shaped American values, politics, business, security, and discourse, particularly as technology has enabled people to separate their identities from their communications.  

In Ransomware Protection Playbook, computer security veteran and expert penetration tester Roger A. Grimes delivers an actionable blueprint for organizations seeking a robust defense against one of the most insidious and destructive IT threats currently in the wild. You'll learn about concrete steps you can take now to protect yourself or your organization from ransomware attacks.

Thank you for the opportunity to contribute to today’s discussion on federal perspectives to secure the nation’s infrastructure. As you know, our nation’s critical infrastructure sectors are dependent on information technology (IT) systems and digital data to carry out operations and to process, maintain, and report essential information. The security of these systems and data is vital to public confidence and national security, prosperity, and well-being.

Reflecting the evolution of information and communication tools and technologies via synergizing theoretical and practical skills in our audiobook, Cybersecurity as a Fishing Game, we aimed to convey, in a concise manner, the importance of cyber safety in regards to cybersecurity and the value of correct use.

When an attack happens, you don't want to be the person or team in complete panic. In an episode, terror becomes the worst enemy and can lead to mistakes. When we panic, we miss important clues about the attack, campaign, or attacker. Having a basic knowledge of general (cyber)security terms and concepts helps us respond faster and more professionally than most teams without that training or expertise. This book focuses on essential concepts in the least amount of time and pages to give you the basic knowledge to stay focused.

All organizations face a broad array of risks, including cybersecurity risk. For federal agencies, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-11 defines risk as “the effect of uncertainty on objectives”. An organization’s mission and business objectives can be impacted by such effects, and must be managed at various levels within the organization. This report highlights aspects of cybersecurity risk management (CSRM) inherent to enterprises, organizations, and systems.

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is committed to leading the response to cybersecurity incidents and vulnerabilities to safeguard the nation's critical assets. Section 6 of Executive Order 14028 directed DHS, via CISA, to “develop a standard set of operational procedures (playbook) to be used in planning and conducting cybersecurity vulnerability and incident response activity respecting Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) Information Systems.

Electricity is essentially the lifeblood of the modern, technological society that we enjoy, for without it, the devices and machinery that enable our economy would not be able to function. The US grid is aging, and one of the tools for modernizing the system is the incorporation of computerized systems that allow for the rapid monitoring and control of the equipment used in the grid. Connecting these systems to the internet has increased the ability to remotely control aspects of the grid, but this has come with increasing concern for the grid’s cybersecurity.

This updated advisory is in response to the increase of ransomware attacks in recent months against critical US infrastructure, such as the May 2021 ransomware attack that disrupted the operations of Colonial Pipeline, the largest pipeline system for refined oil products in the United States. This attack led to widespread gasoline shortages that affected tens of millions of Americans. Other recent targets include entities in the manufacturing, legal services, insurance, financial services, health care, energy, and food production sectors.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) develops cybersecurity standards, guidelines, best practices, and other resources to meet the needs of US industry, federal agencies, and the broader public. Our work ranges from specific information that can be put into practice immediately to longer-term research that anticipates advances in technologies and future challenges.
