The cybersecurity authorities of
the United States, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom
have released a joint Cybersecurity Advisory (CSA) to warn
organizations that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine could expose organizations
both within and beyond the region to increased malicious cyber activity from
Russian state-sponsored cyber actors or Russian-aligned cybercrime groups.
Joint CSA: Russian State-Sponsored and Criminal Cyber Threats to
Critical Infrastructure, drafted with contributions from industry
members of the Joint Cyber Defense Collaborative, provides an
overview of Russian state-sponsored advanced persistent threat groups,
Russian-aligned cyber threat groups, and Russian-aligned cybercrime groups to
help the cybersecurity community protect against possible cyber threats.
U.S., Australian, Canadian, New
Zealand, and UK cybersecurity authorities urge critical infrastructure
network defenders to prepare for and mitigate potential cyber threats by
hardening their cyber defenses as recommended in the [joint CSA].
For more information on current
and historical Russian-state-sponsored cyber activity and recommended
mitigations, see the following CISA webpages:
