The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has issued new guidance warning that US critical infrastructure operators face relentless intrusion attempts from nation-state actors whose ambitions go well beyond espionage.
CISA has reiterated that adversaries have already embedded themselves inside critical systems and telecommunications networks, positioning themselves to cripple the operational technology (OT) that keeps American society running should a wider geopolitical conflict erupt.
In response, the agency launched CI Fortify, an initiative designed to ensure that essential service providers such as public health, national defense, and economic systems can continue operating even during an active cyberattack.
