Security News > 2024 > March > Strengthening critical infrastructure cybersecurity is a balancing act
In this Help Net Security interview, Aaron Crow, Senior Director at MorganFranklin Consulting, discusses critical infrastructure cybersecurity strategies, barriers to threat information sharing, and innovative technologies enhancing resilience against cyberattacks.
How do current cybersecurity strategies address the critical infrastructure sectors' unique needs and vulnerabilities?
These controls, such as regular patch management, access controls, and network segmentation, address common vulnerabilities and reduce the attack surface, making it harder for adversaries to exploit weaknesses within the technology ecosystem and have historically proven ROI. Innovative technologies and approaches are key to enhancing the resilience of critical infrastructure against cyberattacks as can be observed with recent innovations in secure remote access technologies.
How do international standards and collaborations contribute to strengthening critical infrastructure cybersecurity, especially in sectors like energy and telecommunications?
How do you foresee the future of critical infrastructure cybersecurity evolving in the next 5-10 years, and what should organizations do now to prepare?
Over the next 5-10 years, critical infrastructure cybersecurity will evolve significantly driven by technological advancements and escalating cyber threats.
