In an era dominated by digital technologies, the landscape of warfare has evolved beyond traditional battlegrounds to encompass cyberspace. Military organizations worldwide are increasingly recognizing the critical importance of cybersecurity in...

TechNet Cyber: Cybercom Chief Talks Innovation in National Cyber Defenses June 26, 2024, GovCIO | video https://lnkd.in/eV78KgeK Gen. Timothy Haugh said cyber adversaries are operating with greater scope, scale and sophistication. Every day, thousands of attacks are directed at U.S. military, government and defense industrial base systems. Protecting those systems is increasingly a key part of the national defense mission and keeping pace with adversaries is critical. Gen. Timothy Haugh leads Cyber Command and the National Security Agency in a dual-hat role. According to him, the ability to adapt and build resiliency is key to building cybersecurity. At AFCEA TechNet Cyber, Haugh broke down how threats are evolving, his plans for combatting them and how cybersecurity impacts national security.

Today marks the start of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency's Cybersecurity Awareness Month. As a satellite communications provider, we believe it is our duty to protect our networks and customers at all times and provide secure communications across all domains. This month we will explore how Viasat Government's solutions help secure our world by offering highly resilient #cybersecurity protection that ensures sensitive government data is proactively defended and military forces have secure access wherever the mission takes them, on Earth and in space. #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth #SecureOurWorld #ViasatGovernment United States Department of Defense

Attention all DoD cybersecurity professionals! Are you ready to take your cyber defense strategy to the next level? Then mark your calendars for the upcoming #RSAC, where Synack will be making waves with our innovative approach to driving towards zero vulnerabilities. At this year's RSA Conference, you'll have the exclusive opportunity to meet with Synack's founder, Mark Kuhr, Ph.D. , and our General Manager of Public Sector, Catherine Bowen (Katie). These cybersecurity visionaries will be on hand to discuss Synack's strategic roadmap for achieving zero vulnerabilities within the Department of Defense and beyond. Synack isn't just another cybersecurity company – we're leading the charge in revolutionizing vulnerability management with our forward-thinking approach. While traditional solutions focus on finding and patching vulnerabilities as they arise, Synack takes a more strategic approach. We leverage advanced analytics, cutting-edge technology, and the expertise of our global community of ethical hackers to identify patterns, weaknesses, and systemic issues within your cyber defense infrastructure. Our goal? To drive towards zero vulnerabilities by addressing the root causes behind cyber threats, rather than simply applying band-aid fixes. By partnering with Synack, the DoD can strengthen its cyber defense posture, mitigate risks, and safeguard critical assets and operations against emerging threats. So, if you're ready to take your cyber defense strategy to the next level, don't miss your chance to connect with Synack at RSA. Swing by our booth to meet Mark Kuhr, Katie Bowen, and the rest of our team, and learn how Synack can help you achieve your cybersecurity goals.

Time to pop the champagne because the House Armed Services Committee just included an independent study on a Cyber Force within the United States Department of Defense in their NDAA Markup!🍾🥂 The DoD must evolve to meet the threats facing our nation, just like when the United States Air Force was added in 1947 and the United States Space Force in 2019. We recognize five war-fighting domains: land, sea, air, space, and cyberspace… but only four have their own dedicated service. Meanwhile, cyber threats are banging at our door, and the Department of Defense is still trying to find the right software to keep them out. 🖥️🔐 We know a Cyber Force won't magically cut through the red tape slowing down software deployment, but the very real threat to our cybersecurity deserves serious consideration. It's time to see if we need a dedicated Cyber Force to combat it. What are your thoughts on the addition of a Cyber Force?  #CyberSecurity #NationalSecurity #CyberForce 

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has opened registrations for its fifth annual President’s Cup #cybersecurity competition this month. Registration runs Jan. 3 to 23 for the Teams Competition and Jan. 3 – Feb. 6 for the Individuals Competition. Participants can compete as an individual, on a team of up to five members, or both. Teams can be made of individuals from one or more departments or agencies. Participation in the President’s Cup is limited to employees of the U.S. federal government, and they must register using a ‘.gov/.mil’ email address. This includes federal employees and uniformed service personnel from federal civilian agencies, United States Department of Defense active-duty military personnel, civilians, and those serving in a drilling reserve capacity in the Armed Forces Reserves or National Guard. The current job function does not need to be focused on cybersecurity. However, government contractors are not permitted to participate. #Cybersecurity #Cyber #Security #Event #Competition https://lnkd.in/gTjvxmZM

Automated Continuous Assessments are the only way forward if we want to keep pace. Point in time assessments can’t provide the necessary assurance and significantly delay mission access to leading tech. It’s the same issue in Commercial and Jeff Buss makes a great point.

TechNet Cyber will be a huge conference again this year. I’m looking forward to being there to support our DoD and Industry partners! Please stop by our booth for a brief conversation with our team to learn how and why Pure Storage’s approach is different than all other contemporary alternatives and should be at the foundation of DoD weapon systems to support the American warfighter’s data dominance!

Our experts work closely with government agencies, industry partners, and academia to develop innovative solutions for emerging threats. ◾ Military forces must adapt to this new battlefield by prioritizing cybersecurity education and equipping service members to protect themselves online. ◾ Improved cybersecurity training, accessible protective tools, and enhanced cyber awareness are essential for mitigating vulnerabilities. ◾ NUARI provides education and training to build and establish capabilities through workforce readiness training and professional development. Partner with NUARI to enhance your security in the information environment and stay ahead of emerging cyber threats. - https://lnkd.in/gDYUbNhZ https://lnkd.in/ejj8HJX6

With the establishment of the U.S. Space Force why shouldn’t there be a U.S. Cyber Force, given how prevalent cyber warfare plays in military operations. An additional factor to consider is the rise of domestic cybersecurity attacks this year that have had implications at the federal, state & municipal level, from financial theft to gaining access to critical infrastructure. Additionally, from cybersecurity specialists who have served, while there are plenty of professionals serving with advanced knowledge, much of the equipment, tools & technology are not. APTs and state-sponsored hackers are becoming more evasive and technologically-advanced everyday, underscoring the need to keep up with & outperform them. Providing an upgrade across the board would be beneficial in allowing personnel to combat cyber threats more efficiently & effectively! #uscyberforce #cyberforce #cyberwarfare #cybersecurity #cyberprotection #usmilitary #usarmedforces #cybermilitary #usdepartmentofdefense #dod
