Threats and Adversaries to the Defender Industrial Base (DIB): A Defender's Perspective
More than 200,000 companies provide supplies, parts, and manufacturing for DOD's weapon systems. The defense industrial base has been pummeled with new cybersecurity vulnerabilities year on year. We are under attack in every way, every day. This critical industry faces persistent, increasing threats of sophisticated intellectual property theft, economic espionage, cybercrime, and other forms of attacks. The result is that foreign actors are stealing large amounts of sensitive data, trade secrets, and intellectual property every day from DIB firms. This severely erodes not only the DIB, but it could potentially harm future U.S. military operations as Industry experts have noted. We walk through Incident Response requirements that exist now, and other emerging mandates. We also perform an overview of Modern threats and Security operations.
Operational viewpoint of a Modern SOC building frameworks from content to services to react to modern threats. We will highlight handling threats through the lens of a SOC. We will have the following core focus areas.
— The state of the union on Modern threats
— The overview the Government Incident Response requirements
— An overview of the Ransomware Ecosystem and Nation State
— Why is this problem way beyond and more critical than a compliance issue?
— Why do these people care about the DIB anyways?
— Anatomy of a Hack
— Building scale and capacity to hunt and search for modern threats.
