CISA's red team conducted two simultaneous assessments against critical infrastructure organizations, fully compromising both at the domain level. One organization detected nothing during the exercise, highlighting significant gaps in defensive capabilities.
IFF Assessment
The article reveals a significant defensive failure where critical infrastructure organizations were compromised without detection, indicating a serious threat to national security.
Defender Context
This report underscores the persistent and sophisticated threats facing critical infrastructure. Defenders must focus on improving detection capabilities to identify advanced adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures before significant damage can occur. Organizations should review their incident detection and response processes, especially in light of simulated red team exercises that reveal potential blind spots.
