You Are Exposed to Critical Risks
Critical Risks are exposed to your People, your Processes, and your Technology. These threads are interwoven, and they may be manipulated or exploited by hackers creating Unidentified Critical Risks that can result in Cascading Failures. Managing the interdependencies and measuring the impacts is fundamental to a mature cybersecurity program.
Unidentified Critical Risks
- Customer Data Exploited
- Failure of Devices Leading to Key Production Process Disruption
- Service Delivery Interruptions
- Core Intellectual Property Compromised
- Supply Chain Compromises Leading to Service Failure
Failure Examples
- Colonial Pipeline (2021)
Hackers gained access to the network using a key VPN legacy system. Compromise of internal devices led the company to shutting down pipeline operations across the east coast. - JBS (2021)
Hackers gained access to the meat processor’s network leading to the disruption of cattle processing operations in plants across three countries. - City of Baltimore (2019)
Cyber criminals gained access to several points in the city’s network shutting down a variety of key services including water billing services, titling operations, and parking tickets and fines.
