Due to recent global events, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) in partnership with Department of Homeland Security (DOHS) have issued numerous “Shields UP” advisories, its highest alert status, indicating cyber threat actors are actively targeting agencies and organizations within the US and beyond. And while threat activity has escalated in recent months and even years, their technology is becoming more advanced and harder to detect. CISA, in partnership with major national security agencies, recommends all organizations—regardless of size or industry—adopt a heightened posture when it comes to cybersecurity and protecting their most critical assets.
