CISA Releases Cyber Decoy Guidance to Strengthen Critical Infrastructure Defenses
Complementing Zero Trust models, decoys enable organizations to detect, observe, and block malicious activity in their environments. The post CISA Releases Cyber Decoy Guidance to Strengthen Critical Infrastructure Defenses appeared first on SecurityWeek.
The US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has released new guidance on deploying decoy systems for robust cyber defenses within critical infrastructure organizations.
Cyber decoys, the agency says, complement Zero Trust models, which continuously verify all access, by assuming an adversary has gained some level of access to an enterprise environment.
“Cyber decoys are assets that appear to be legitimate systems, accounts, or data, but are designed to distract adversaries, detect their presence, or facilitate collection of cyber threat intelligence (CTI),” CISA notes.
