EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT
APPLICATION SECURITY
Enterprise security professionals must be proactive in dealing with the security risks that are rising in today’s business environment. A solid strategy is necessary to deal with incoming threats, and awareness is the first step in developing effective cyber defenses. Data is easily accessible within many organizations, and when confronted with security risks, employees often do not know how to mitigate them. Security awareness training empowers employees to take corrective measures.
This whitepaper discusses some of the top security concerns and issues that organizations currently face, which include:
Apart from outlining the threats, the aim of security awareness training should also offer guidance on the importance of security awareness, the challenges involved, and how to overcome these challenges. As cybersecurity threats constantly change, security awareness training should be designed to help employees be alert to the latest threats and take appropriate defensive steps.
 
Organizations must educate employees on the importance of protecting their data and systems, regardless of their job function. Running phishing simulations, conducting vulnerability assessment tests, and creating personalized content for security training and education are vital in improving defense systems. Making updates should prioritize feedback from these processes. When employees know about cyber security risks, organizations are less likely to be hacked and can worry less about massive data breaches. Read the complete whitepaper here.

Abigail Peterson (right), a senior in Information Security and Intelligence from White Lake, works with Kyle Bowen (left) on research for Ferris State University’s new course Satellites and space cybersecurity. 
Satellites and space cybersecurity is a brand new first-year course at Ferris State University in the Information Security and Intelligence program. 
BIG RAPIDS — A first-year course in Ferris State University’s Information Security and Intelligence program now represents a significant work in progress in supporting the Center for Cybersecurity and Data Science, a course that will require at $32.5 million facility being built on campus. 
Satellites and Space Cybersecurity is a brand new course in which student researchers pursuing master’s degrees and upper-level students are working under the direction of Molly Cooper, an associate professor in the Information Security and Intelligence program.
Leading the student research is Will Allington, a graduate student from Howard City, who says this seven-week course reviews space cybersecurity.
Allington said the class will offer new opportunities to explore the space communications field.
“In an accelerated format, we will address many aspects of the space system, where an orbiting satellite has a network of ground equipment that supports its data delivery,” Allington said. “ISIN 380 is a class for juniors and seniors, where they rely on previous coursework to help make appropriate determinations in this rapidly changing communications field.”
A wide range of orbiting communications equipment is under consideration for study including space vehicles weighing more than two tons to picosatellites — a small satellite, miniaturized satellite — whose mass is only a pound or two and provides a short service life in amateur communications.
Cooper said the class is a pilot offering in the fall, and the half-semester course this spring is its official addition to the curriculum.
The university is just getting started in a five-year education partnership agreement with the National Security Agency.
“We are excited to be developing coursework that can be focused into a graduate certificate program to outfit professionals with the learning they need to begin careers in space cybersecurity,” Cooper said.
The federal government has authorized defense laboratories to create partnerships with institutions including, colleges, universities and nonprofits dedicated to fields such as STEM, business and law.
The NSA will offer experts to help develop academic projects and programs in STEM-related fields. The agency also will provide academic and career advice to students and offer program and research advice to Ferris faculty and staff.
Allington said that the course’s development is valuable to the national and global community and the students who will gain from the experience.
“The race is on to place satellites, with the spectrum becoming rather crowded,” Allington said. “There are considerations in international law, and one of many goals here is to avoid the presence of ‘space junk’ through best practices that promote stewardship and careful attention to satellite operations.”
Information Security and Intelligence also has collaborative relationships with the Department of Homeland Security, The Pentagon and numerous Fortune 500 companies.
The Security Intelligence will be among the programs moving into the new Center for Virtual Learning on the Big Rapids campus this fall.
The $32.5 million facility, which includes $22 million from the state of Michigan, will feature next-generation classrooms and labs, an advanced Cyber Competition Center and an e-sports arena.

If you’re looking to train yourself and employees in solid cybersecurity measures, security awareness training is essential.
The increasing number of data breaches, unintentional leaks, and other incidents are forcing individuals and companies to learn how to defend themselves against cybersecurity threats.
One of the ways to protect yourself from cyber threats is to undergo security awareness training. Training people about cybersecurity helps them stay safe online and at home. Awareness training, for instance, can help prevent cyber threats and promote strong security cultures.
Cybersecurity awareness is the ongoing process of educating and training people about online security threats as well as how to spot and respond to ransomware, phishing, hacking, and other attacks. It includes being aware of the risks associated with using the internet, email, and social media.
The best approach to spreading awareness is equipping people with the knowledge they need to identify, prevent, and fix security issues. Here are the two top cybersecurity awareness training courses.
KnowBe4 is a leading player in security awareness training that aims to equip individuals with the knowledge and tools they need to make wiser security decisions.
The platform offers a massive library of security awareness training content. The training materials include over 1,000 interactive modules, games, and videos.
KnowBe4 supports the simulation of various phishing attacks and allows companies to create custom templates and campaigns. It also provides reporting and insights to monitor the success of your security awareness training campaigns.
Cofense is a training services company that offers thousands of educational resources, including videos and infographics. It provides training with a specific emphasis on phishing and email security topics.
The company provides a variety of pre-built, but customizable phishing scenarios, including malicious attachments and landing pages. In addition, the platform uses machine learning to recommend phishing scenarios.
Enforcing cybersecurity awareness training is a great way to build a risk-aware workforce. It can help minimize online security risks, including phishing attempts, malware infections and data breaches.
Data breaches, in particular, cost companies millions of dollars, most of which result from human error. A key goal of awareness training is to minimize the contribution of human error in causing or facilitating security breaches.

WASHINGTON – Today, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) held its sixth Cybersecurity Advisory Committee meeting, the first quarterly meeting of 2023.  
Swearing in the new members announced yesterday, Director Easterly highlighted how their background and expertise will provide additional insight into how CISA can protect the nation’s critical infrastructure from increasing cyber threats, to include informing our work to help ‘target-rich, cyber-poor’ sectors. She discussed how bringing on leaders with rich background in government, including two former Congressmen, the recently retired National Cyber Director, and leaders from the State of New Hampshire and the UK’s former CEO of National Cyber Security Centre is critical to our efforts to collaborate across all levels of government and across the globe. She also spoke to the collective insight of the group from leading technology manufacturers, including several new members, that will inform our work to encourage technology manufacturers to build products that are both secure by default and secure by design. 
Director Easterly then led a discussion on CISA’s response to the recommendations submitted at the September 2022 meeting and subcommittees’ path forward.  Chairs of each subcommittee, including Transforming the Cyber Workforce, Turning the Corner on Cyber Hygiene, Technical Advisory Council, Building Resilience and Reducing Systemic Risk to Critical Infrastructure, National Cybersecurity Alert System, and Corporate Cyber Responsibility, discussed the path forward and work to come based on this feedback. 
Established in 2021, the Committee, was created to provide recommendations to the CISA Director that will help to advance the cybersecurity mission of CISA as well as strengthen the cybersecurity of the United States.   
“I am thrilled to welcome our newest members, who bring a wealth of experience from across government and industry and look forward to their added perspectives in making recommendations to build a more cyber resilient nation to confront the cybersecurity challenges we face,” said CISA Director Jen Easterly. The insightful recommendations the Committee has already developed, and their continuous work are instrumental in helping CISA become the Nation’s Cyber Defense Agency our nation needs and deserves.” 
 The next CISA Cybersecurity Advisory Committee meeting will be in-person in June. Details and information on how to attend will be forthcoming.        
 The full agenda from today’s meeting is available here. More information on CISA’s Cybersecurity Advisory Committee is available here.

99% of all businesses across the United States and Canada are mid-sized businesses facing cybersecurity challenges, according to a Huntress report.

Aimed to gain insights into organizational structure, resources and cybersecurity strategies, the results contextualize challenges across core functions including gaps in toolkits, planning, staffing, security awareness training and difficulty to secure cybersecurity insurance.
“In some regards, this research tells a virtual ‘Tale of Two Cities’ for mid-size and smaller businesses. Many report solid progress in strengthening their cyber defenses, while others acknowledge they face significant gaps in resources and talent that substantially increases their cyber risk,” commented Kyle Hanslovan, CEO of Huntress.
Mid-sized businesses are increasingly aware of the need for layered cybersecurity strategies. However, more tools doesn’t necessarily equal more protection.
Research showed a large portion of respondents weren’t deploying threat monitoring, endpoint detection and response, vulnerability scanning, patch management or network detection and response.
Perhaps most alarming, 47% of respondents reported their organization does not currently have an incident response plan, which puts the organization at a severe disadvantage for quickly and effectively fighting off security incidents when they occur.
Beyond lacking necessary security solutions, mid-sized businesses also struggled to implement basic training measures and recruit the necessary staff. In fact, 61% of respondents say they do not have dedicated cybersecurity experts in their organization and only 9% say their workers adhere to security best practices.
These gaps create major obstacles when fighting off cyberattacks in today’s advanced threat landscape as the fewer defenders there are to bolt the door shut, the more paths there are for cybercriminals to get through the defenses.
While this challenge permeates businesses of all sizes, mid-sized companies are often strapped for money and resources, making it more difficult to effectively recruit and retain the talent they desperately need.
Mid-sized organizations are feeling the residual effects of their security gaps when going through the process of securing cyber insurance. While the demand for cyber insurance is increasing, it’s becoming harder to secure because the fundamentals aren’t being adequately met.
Findings showed that while 69% of respondents reported they are required to carry some form of cyber insurance, nearly 30% reported having no cyber insurance coverage, highlighting the immediate need to shore up cyber hygiene in order to lock in protection.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
2023-52
Washington D.C., March 15, 2023 —
The Securities and Exchange Commission today proposed requirements for broker-dealers, clearing agencies, major security-based swap participants, the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board, national securities associations, national securities exchanges, security-based swap data repositories, security-based swap dealers, and transfer agents (collectively, “Market Entities”) to address their cybersecurity risks.
“I am pleased to support this proposal because, if adopted, it would set standards for Market Entities’ cybersecurity practices,” said SEC Chair Gary Gensler. “The nature, scale, and impact of cybersecurity risks have grown significantly in recent decades. Investors, issuers, and market participants alike would benefit from knowing that these entities have in place protections fit for a digital age. This proposal would help promote every part of our mission, particularly regarding investor protection and orderly markets.”
Market Entities increasingly rely on information systems to perform their functions and provide their services and thus are targets for threat actors who may seek to disrupt their functions or gain access to the data stored on the information systems for financial gain. Cybersecurity risk also can be caused by the errors of employees, service providers, or business partners. The interconnectedness of Market Entities increases the risk that a significant cybersecurity incident can simultaneously impact multiple Market Entities causing systemic harm to the U.S. securities markets.
The proposal would require all Market Entities to implement policies and procedures that are reasonably designed to address their cybersecurity risks and, at least annually, review and assess the design and effectiveness of their cybersecurity policies and procedures, including whether they reflect changes in cybersecurity risk over the time period covered by the review. The proposal — through new notification requirements applicable to all Market Entities and additional reporting requirements applicable to Market Entities other than certain types of small broker-dealers (collectively, “Covered Entities”) — would improve the Commission’s ability to obtain information about significant cybersecurity incidents affecting these entities. Further, new public disclosure requirements for Covered Entities would improve transparency about the cybersecurity risks that can cause adverse impacts to the U.S. securities markets.
The proposing release will be published in the Federal Register. The public comment period will remain open until 60 days after the date of publication of the proposing release in the Federal Register.

As regulators step in to operate Silicon Valley Bank, threat hunters and security executives warned organizations to look out for malicious activity.
The collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, combined with spreading worries of a calamitous fallout, could create new hooks for a spree of news-driven social engineering attacks.
Researchers at Proofpoint observed a phishing campaign designed to exploit the banking crisis with messages impersonating several cryptocurrencies. Threat hunters and cybersecurity professionals across multiple firms warned organizations to be on the lookout for malicious activity.
Threat actors don’t just follow the news — they react to it and identify new ways to target potential victims during moments of heightened sensitivity. Phishing and business email compromise attacks are often tailored to take advantage of the fear and uncertainty surrounding major events.
“CISA is closely monitoring the situation,” a spokesperson for the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency said. “Currently, we are not tracking any cyberattacks or incidents associated with Silicon Valley Bank.”
Cybersecurity professionals, as is their wont, are operating under the assumption that threat actors will turn this banking crisis into fuel for cyberattacks.
“Ultimately, because these crises can help to create a sense of urgency, this moment in time can be an effective tool for threat actors,” Arctic Wolf CISO Adam Marrè said via email.
Arctic Wolf hasn’t observed a notable volume of threats, but it has seen an uptick in newly registered domains related to SVB since federal regulators took over the bank’s deposits on Friday. The cybersecurity firm expects some of those domains to serve as a hub for phishing attacks.
Professionals should scrutinize for spoofed email addresses and fake emails designed to facilitate an urgent response and be extra cautious across all exchanges, Marrè said.
Organizations should be especially vigilant with financial transactions and take additional precautions to avoid fraud via phishing or business email compromise.
Phishing was the top cybercrime type reported to the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center in 2022, according to an annual report published Friday. Phishing accounted for nearly 2 in 5 cybercrime incidents reported to the FBI last year, for a total of 300,000 reported crimes.
Finance employees, which often have access to an organization’s banking information for billing and payments, are an optimal target for threat actors conducting phishing or business email compromise attacks.
“Gaining access to a finance department laptop could provide a windfall for cybercriminal,” Eyal Gruner, co-founder and CEO at Cynet, said via email. “With all the chaos and fear as a result of the SVB collapse, these employees are particularly vulnerable right now.”
“If the victim is a client of SVB and has funds tied up there, then they get additional accounts robbed, things can go from very bad to horrific very quickly,” Gruner said.
The opportunity for fraud is massive and not just limited to direct customers of SVB but rather anyone doing business with those organizations, according to Expel CISO Greg Notch. 
“There will be lots of changes to payment information between businesses, creating counterparty risk,” Notch said via email. 
Some altered transactions may go unnoticed as scrambling activity between counterparties increases over the coming weeks, Notch added.
The failure of two banks in as many days and a widespread concern that this banking crisis could spread is just the latest event of global consequence for threat actors to glom onto.
“Attackers are always looking for an angle. Leveraging a chaotic situation where people are confused, looking for information and not sure where to turn, they’re more apt to open random emails that may help them,” Gruner said. For adversaries, “the more people are confused, scared and looking for answers the better.”

During periods of economic uncertainty, the outlook often seems to change daily. In a single week, a great jobs report or slowing interest rate hikes might offset disappointing earnings reports — that is, until major companies start announcing massive layoffs.
In such turbulent times, prudent cybersecurity professionals might well question how a recession would affect their job security and the field at large.
The good news is that a full-blown recession is unlikely to have a major effect on cybersecurity job security and the cybersecurity industry at large for the following two reasons:
Considering these factors, it is hard to imagine a recession would seriously threaten cybersecurity job security at the macro level.
On the other hand, these professionals are responsible for challenging, high-stakes work and face substantial day-to-day risk, irrespective of economic conditions. Unfortunately, some security practitioners are likely to take the fall if — or, increasingly, when — an attack adversely affects their companies. On the micro level, cybersecurity job security may, therefore, be less assured, relative to other fields.
Of course, all the above is not to say a recession would have no effect on cybersecurity. Consider the following possible impacts.
A recession would likely influence the cybersecurity job market, if relatively indirectly. For instance, a worsening economy could push nonsecurity professionals to move into the field, due to declining job security in their previous positions.
Such an influx of newcomers could increase the comparative market value of longtime, experienced cybersecurity practitioners and their skill sets. To fully capitalize on this advantage, however, these professionals might need to be flexible about where they are willing to work geographically and how they practice their security trade. For example, professional opportunities could increase significantly in security consulting and educating and training those interested in pursuing security careers.
In a recession, even companies that survive have to deal with constrained budgets. And, while virtually everyone agrees security is essential, it is not always easy to demonstrate the ROI of any specific security product or process.
Security professionals’ best plan of attack is to build data-driven reports that clearly demonstrate the following:
The more specific, concrete benefits security managers can demonstrate in their reports, the better chance they have of justifying their budgets.
Increased budget pressure would drive security managers to look for ways to do more with less. As such, demand for the following security technologies would likely increase in a recession:
Note that one technology not on the above list is quantum computing. While there has been a lot of talk lately about its promise and potential for breaking existing encryption schemes, machines large enough to do so are years away. Quantum is, therefore, unlikely to have any near-term effects on enterprise security, in a recession or otherwise.
