5 Cybersecurity Priorities for The Trump Administration

President Donald Trump’s administration will assume a cybersecurity portfolio that has continued to evolve toward combating digital threats since the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Protection Agency (CISA) was created 6 years ago out of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). CISA’s mission is a formidable one. The list of hostile threat players in cyberspace is quite extensive. Nation-states, organized criminals, terrorists, and hacktivists are all included.

3 Alarming Threats To The U.S. Energy Grid – Cyber, Physical, And Existential Events

Protecting critical infrastructure, and especially the U.S. Energy Grid is certainly a topic that keeps the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), The U.S. Department of Defense (DOD), and U.S. intelligence community planners up at night. The threats can be from cybersecurity attacks (by countries, criminal gangs, or hacktivists), from physical attacks by terrorists (domestic or foreign) and vandals on utilities or power plants, or from an Electronic Magnetic Pulse (EMP) generated from a geomagnetic solar flare, or from a terrorist short range missile exploded in the atmosphere.
