In 2023, CSIS continued to employ the entirety of its investigative techniques to reduce threats to the security of Canada and Canadian critical infrastructure in collaboration with domestic and international partners. As cyber activities targeting Canada continue to increase in scale & complexity, continued vigilance and collaboration between Canada, its security partners; and civil society is more important than ever before to ensure the protection of #NationalSecurity.

As National Cyber Security Centre CEO Dr. Richard Horne highlighted, cybersecurity is a "team sport," and the insurance market is a key player. But the game is only as strong as the tools we use—and in cyber insurance, catastrophe models are overdue for a transformation. Current models barely scratch the surface, offering loose guidance at best. The interconnected, digital nature of our society demands smarter, data-driven tools that integrate threat intelligence with a granular understanding of inherent and residual risk for each policyholder. Imagine a catastrophe model far superior to anything available today—one that not only sharpens insurers’ view of their portfolios but also streamlines risk transfer. By grounding insurer-reinsurer discussions in precise data, such a model enables alignment on risk appetite and terms. With this innovation, we can scale the cyber insurance market to $50 billion and beyond, directing capacity where it’s most needed and boosting resilience for all. The tools we need aren’t just an aspiration—they’re the key to unlocking a stronger, more secure future.
Today, the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) announced the launch of its 2024 annual review, reflecting on this past year’s cyber security threats and trends, and priorities for the future. NCSC CEO Richard Horne highlighted the role of partners and the importance of strengthening the UK’s resilience against an increasingly complex and challenging threat landscape: “Last week, you will have heard the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster warn about the aggression and recklessness of cyber activity we see coming from Russia. And with our partners – including at the National Protective Security Authority, otherwise known as the NPSA – we can see how cyber-attacks are increasingly important to Russian actors, along with sabotage threats to physical security which both the Director General of MI5 and the Chief of SIS have spoken about recently.” To find out more, visit the NPSA website. https://lnkd.in/eJy_K4C5 #ncsc #npsa

I will be conferencing on the 22nd November afternoon during the inaugural event host by the African Network of Canadian Studies on Transnational Cyber Threats as emerging Canadian African Interdependent Issue. My communication presents an interesting and timely exploration of transnational cyber threats, focusing on the emerging interdependencies between Canada and Africa. The comparison between these two regions, despite differing security communities, is intriguing, especially regarding the role of state actors and non-state actors in cyberspace. Overall, it introduces a thought-provoking perspective on cybersecurity challenges. Nate D.F. Allen Claude-Yves Charron #PolitiqueInternationaledeCybersécuritéduCanada

𝐌𝐎𝐈𝐒 𝐔𝐧𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐬 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐖𝐚𝐫𝐟𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐢𝐝𝐝𝐥𝐞 𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐭 Mandiant has identified a formidable Iranian APT group, UNC1860, believed to be affiliated with Iran's Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS). UNC1860 specializes in gaining initial access to target networks and establishing long-term persistence, particularly in government and telecommunications organizations across the Middle East. The group leverages a custom arsenal of tools including TEMPLEPLAY, VIROGREEN, STAYSHANTE, SASHEYAWAY, TEMPLEDOOR, FACEFACE, SPARKLOAD, and OATBOAT to compromise systems and steal data. UNC1860 has also been linked to APT34 and has targeted organizations in Iraq. This activity highlights the growing sophistication of Iranian cyber operations and the potential threat they pose to critical infrastructure in the Middle East. Organizations should be vigilant and implement robust cybersecurity measures to defend against these attacks. #cybersecurity #security #infosec #cyberattack #cyberwarfare #cloudDFN

#Australia, the UK and the US have all set out new national approaches to #cybersecurity in recent years aligned to the #AUKUS treaty. Of course, there are fundamental differences between the three nations. But there are also some important similarities. We take a closer look at Australia’s latest cyber strategy, comparing it with those of the #UK and #US to identify the differentiators and areas of common ground: http://baes.co/mGZY50TLT4T #CyberStrategy #CyberThreats

The UK is at risk from cyberattacks on its critical infrastructure allegedly orchestrated by the People's Republic of China, according to Certes, a cybersecurity firm. Certes has voiced concerns that the UK is not adequately prepared to handle sophisticated cyber threats, particularly those posed by a group known as Volt Typhoon, which has come under scrutiny by US intelligence agencies, including the FBI. https://lnkd.in/dB9YCF-W
