US needs NATO-Style Defense Against China Hackers: Cyber Expert Cyber experts have called on the U.S. and its allies to protect themselves from China's hacking programme with a Nato-style collective approach. Cyber espionage has become a central prong in China's foreign policy, with the scale and complexity of its offensive cybersecurity infrastructure astounding experts. Blake Cahen, director of cybersecurity at IronNet, has warned that breaches are destined to continue unless countries and companies shore up their online defenses. https://lnkd.in/gEEThqbS #CyberSecurity #China #NATO
From October 2023 to March 2024, Chinese hackers accounted for 68.3% of cyber threats worldwide, followed by Russian hackers at 18.32%, according to the latest Trellix report. These stats clearly show the need for global action against Chinese hackers. Thanks Bob Carver, CISM, CISSP, MS ✭, for raising this awareness! 👍🏾 Source: https://cybernews.com/security/most-malicious-activity-detections-traced-back-to-china/
Funny how nobody is calling for IT shit to be done properly in the first place. 🤣
The entire developed world were Sold Out so far as security is concerned when Surveillance programmes took over decades ago. Sadly NATO DO NOT have good Digital Security so Mr. Wray's comments are somewhat bravado at best, misleading at worst.
Maybe stop forcing manufacturers to backdoor tech and then loosing the keys to the backdoor?
NATO allies declared cyberspace a new operational domain, taking its place alongside air, land and sea (Para. 70). The Warsaw Summit Communiqué thus reaffirmed cyberspace as part of NATO’s core task of collective defence. Which means defending from a cyberattack can be handled under NATO Article 5 and a NATO member states can call allies for support of counter actions... actions not only on cyberspace but full range of NATO military domains.

More proactivity is required to stop issues before they happen, and this recommendation sounds like a good way forward. China's cyber espionage has a significant impact on global cybersecurity. Ransomware attacks, such as those attributed to ChamelGang, disrupt essential services and also pose a threat to national security and economic stability worldwide.

2wWe need to get rid of a few "Departments" but we need a create a new - separate "department of technology and cyber" staffed with the best and the brightest to stay ahead of these threats. Today - these tasks are spread by DOJ / Homeland Security / Commerce / Transportation / State / Defense etc . . . .
