Basic cyber hygiene (like backing up data, MFA, & more) can stop 90% of cyberattacks. Cities need to take fundamental cybersecurity steps to keep communities safe. We know there are challenges, but we can help!

Great USG move toward a zero trust architecture in federal cybersecurity strategy released today. Weāve long advocated for modern security approaches like zero trust and have applied these principles to our operations. Looking forward to continue to support USG in this mission.
Today, we released a Federal cybersecurity strategy to move the U.S. Government toward a āzero trustā architecture ā a critical step forward in delivering on @POTUSās cybersecurity Executive Order.

I am calling on all federal departments and agencies to prioritize implementation of @CISAgov ED 22-02 and to keep an eye out for iterations and updates to it in the future. #federalcoherence
šØ We issued Emergency Directive (ED) 22-02 in response to the Apache Log4j vulnerabilities. āÆThe ED requires action for federal civilian agencies to mitigate these vulnerabilities. We encourage all organizations to take similar steps: cisa.gov/emergency-directiveā¦

1/ #Log4Shell Status determination
# Block Rules / Log-Based Detection
There's no effective or rather gapless way to detect attacks that use log4shell due to the many ways to obfuscate the strings.
Don't put too much trust in any filter/detection pattern. All can be bypassed.

Cybersecurity & the Board
Working with your Board to manage cyber risk is more than getting the right deck & metrics. Rather, it's about a business view in which the risk can be contextualized - and into which your risk quantification can resonate.
