Cyber Defense eMagazine March Edition for 2022

The view from the Publisher’s desk is very encouraging, based on celebrating 10 years of growth and success at Cyber Defense Magazine! When our tiny team began our journey at Cyber Defense Media Group (CDMG) together in January 2012, we were happy to help smaller, lesser-known innovators of infosec, get their message out there and Rise Above the noise. Now, after 10 years, we’re even helping multi-billion-dollar companies and governments around the globe with our offices in DC, London, FL, NY and other locations in play, as we continue to scale, thanks to you – our readers, listeners, viewers and media partners. Beyond the magazine, in response to the demands of our markets, the scope of CDMG’s activities has grown into many media endeavors. They now include Cyber Defense Awards; Cyber Defense Conferences; Cyber Defense Professionals (job postings site being revamped); Cyber Defense TV, Radio, and Webinars; and Cyber Defense Ventures (partnering with investors). Please check them out and see how much more CDMG has to offer! Very respectfully and with much appreciation, Gary Miliefsky, Publisher

potential threats. Reactive cybersecurity strategies such as anti-virus software and sandboxing are no<br />

longer effective enough to keep up with the growing sophistication of cyberattacks. In fact, they can<br />

actually place users in the direct line of attack and increase the pressure on teams to handle threats.<br />

CDR helps assess the areas of weakness by rebuilding files and removing areas of vulnerability. For<br />

government agencies, it helps close up loopholes and allow leaders to focus on more important things<br />

such as policy making and strategy.<br />

The hackers behind SolarWinds are still actively trying to break into federal agencies. <strong>Cyber</strong>attacks are<br />

expected to become more prolific and more sophisticated as they develop new strategies <strong>for</strong> getting into<br />

private networks. Although there is an ef<strong>for</strong>t being made to improve the government’s cybersecurity such<br />

as Biden’s recent <strong>Cyber</strong>security bill, promising to develop a more comprehensive plan to mitigate risk;<br />

there is a crucial need to take steps to protect the safety of classified documents. If organisations<br />

implement a proper system of proactive cybersecurity, they will be better prepared to handle it when an<br />

attack comes.<br />
