Our ability to detect, disrupt and deter our adversaries while taking advantage of the revolution in the use of smart and cyber technology will be dramatically enhanced by commitments in the Integrated Review of security, defence, development and foreign policy, to be published this week.

The review will set out the importance of cyber technology to our way of life whether its defeating our enemies on the battlefield, making the internet a safer place or developing cutting-edge tech to improve peoples lives.

Cyber Security is the foundation of our cyber power and the UK has been at the cutting edge of the use of intelligence to disrupt threats online and defend against attacks. We established the National Cyber Security Centre in 2016 to help critical organisations, businesses and the general public protect themselves.

In recent years our adversaries have invested in their own capabilities and are constantly finding new ways to exploit our weaknesses and gain advantage in cyberspace. To cement our competitive edge and keep ahead of our enemies a full spectrum approach is therefore needed.

The Integrated Review will announce a new cyber strategy to create a cyber ecosystem fit for the future, with more investment in education, partnerships with industry and integration across our defence and intelligence services.

The Prime Minister said:

Cyber power is revolutionising the way we live our lives and fight our wars, just as air power did 100 years ago. We need to build up our cyber capability so we can grasp the opportunities it presents while ensuring those who seek to use its powers to attack us and our way of life are thwarted at every turn.

Our new, full-spectrum approach to cyber will transform our ability to protect our people, promote our interests around the world and make the lives of British people better every day.

The Prime Minister will announce this week that the home of the new National Cyber Force and the nexus of this strategy will be in the North of England, establishing a cyber corridor across the region.

Opening the HQ of the NCF in the North of England will drive growth in the tech, digital and defence sectors outside of London and help create new partnerships between government, the sector and universities in the region, placing it in the international centre of cutting-edge developments to keep our people safe.

Defence currently sustains more than 35,000 jobs in the North West of England alone. Digital and cyber jobs will build on the regions history of being on the cutting edge of defence technology 10,000 people are employed in maritime design in Barrow and 12,000 people work in advanced aerospace engineering and manufacturing at Samlesbury Aerospace Enterprise Zone, where the UK is producing the fifth generation F-35 stealth aircraft.

The North of England is already home to a GCHQ office in Manchester, which is and is Europes fastest growing major tech cluster, with more than 15% of Manchesters population employed by the digital, creative and technology sector.

The National Cyber Force was created last year to transform the UKs capacity to conduct targeted offensive cyber operations against terrorists, hostile states and criminal gangs. It draws together personnel from both defence and the intelligence agencies under one unified command for the first time.

The kinds of operations the NCF is able to carry out include:

Recognising the importance of cyber to defence, in addition to the NCF last year the MoD created the 13th Signals Regiment, the first dedicated cyber regiment, and expanded the Defence Cyber School. These enhanced cyber capabilities bolster our defence and will play a vital part in operations including HMS Queen Elizabeths first global deployment this year. MoD cyber experts comprise almost half of the NCFs cyber operators.

In addition to national security and defence applications, cyber technology can also be used to improve peoples lives through smart technology and helping people use the internet safely. In the last year, GCHQ has partnered with tech start-ups to help them develop and use AI to help train companies ensure more space for passengers during the COVID pandemic, alert haulage companies to stowaways in their containers and prevent the spread of misinformation online.

The Governments new cyber strategy will support companies developing dual-use and consumer technology to ensure the UK is a cyber power in every sense. It will also be critical to our ambition to establish the UK as a global services, digital and data hub.

Excerpt from:
International Policy Review Puts Cyber at the centre of the UK's Security - GOV.UK

No one likes malicious botnets, but Canadas telecom regulator has found no industry support around its suggestion that carriers and internet providers be part of a mandatory network-based malicious botnet-blocking regime.

The idea was raised by the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to put muscle behind the fight against botnets. In January it suggested the creation of a mandatory or voluntary network-blocking framework for providers to kick off the debate. An independent body with expertise in cybersecurity might assess whether blocking a particular domain or IP address is justified.

But among the 46 written submissions made this week, the idea of a mandatory regime got thumbs down from the countrys big three telecom providers, independent internet providers, banks and an insurance company, and internet advocacy groups.

Instead, there were calls for the telecom industry to work closer on cybersecurity, perhaps with a voluntary botnet-fighting framework.

One of the few qualified supporters is the RCMP. In a letter to the CRTC, the RCMP backed the framework.

Please accept this letter as support from the RCMP National Cybercrime Coordination Unit (NC3) for the development of a framework to address botnet traffic and strengthen public safety, the letter read.

The Mounties didnt say the framework has to be mandatory.

Otherwise, the fight against more regulation is led by Bell, Rogers and Telus the main providers connecting to the internet backbone that would carry much of the burden.

All three telcos say a mandatory network-based botnet blocking regime goes beyond the CRTCs powers, wouldnt be effective and is unnecessary because providers already co-operate to reduce the impact of botnets.

Depending on which study is cited, overall botnet traffic could amount to as much as half of all internet traffic with malicious bots accounting for as much as 30 per cent of that.

Heres a sample of the submissions:

Bell: The commissions proposal for a mandatory regulated botnet blocking regime, which would introduce bureaucracy, including a third-party whose prior authority would be required as a precondition to all blocking, appears to be at odds with the existing [federal cybersecurity] framework which is meant to foster co-operation and collaboration amongst public sector and private sector stakeholders.

The current co-operative and collaborative environment, in which intelligence is shared with the appropriate industry members, is effective, flexible and nimble. The existing government/industry working groups have succeeded in identifying malicious traffic and providing insights into how to mitigate potential impacts. Group members have extensive expertise and backgrounds in cybersecurity issues.

Telus: Network blocking is a reactive approach focused on botnets that are already deployed and present on end-user devices. Government should focus on improving the security of end user devices by establishing and enforcing security standards for end-user devices and for devices eligible for government procurement. Adopting this proactive approach will have a much more significant impact on reducing botnet attacks than the network blocking proposal.

When it comes to network security practices, it is much preferred for telecom service providers to adopt voluntary best practices and continue to co-ordinate security responses across industry actors. This is the approach advocated by security industry working groups, such as the Canadian Security Telecommunications Advisory Committee (CSTAC)4 which has published a series of best practices frameworks which its members are encouraged to adopt within their own environments.

Rogers: Blocking of botnet traffic is a highly technical matter that requires in-depth security intelligence. The current proposal for a single network blocking framework is not the best approach to tackle cybercrime.

The federal governments Communications Security Establishment and its Canadian Centre for Cyber Security should take the lead on cybersecurity rather than the CRTC. The regulator should approach the CSTAC to develop a collaborative effort to dealing with these cybersecurity issues.

Government-mandated blocking should only be used as a measure of last resort.

Shaw: The commission should consider leading the formation of a new and independent body that would build a list of known botnets perhaps called the Botnet Blocking Organization (BBO). The commissions involvement should be limited to setting up the blocking framework. The BBO would rely on expert advice from internet service providers, information technology companies, and law enforcement to complete the blocking framework, and then to build and maintain the block list. The BBO would make its list available to all Canadian ISPs so that they can block their customers devices from communicating with any domain or internet protocol (IP) address on the list. This would disrupt communication between bots hosted on any of their end users devices and their C2 server, effectively neutralizing the botnet.

A joint submission by TD Bank, Royal Bank, CIBC, Bank of Montreal, Scotiabank, Desjardins and Canada Life insurance: If there is a regulatory regime, data gathered to protect against botnets should not be used to contravene of any Canadian privacy legislation, hinder legitimate and appropriate commerce, enhance targeted marketing, generate a new revenue stream for telecom service providers, or for gaining competitive advantage by hindering the ability of competitive services from reaching Canadians. The regulatory requirements must be tightly crafted to only allow the exceptions envisioned. A narrowly crafted exemption to net neutrality would avoid these concerns.

The Internet Society: We note that, as proposed, the CRTCs approach would focus only on detection and notification, which neglects other critical dimensions needed to address botnets, including education of users, detection by IPSs, notifying customers and collaboration. The proposed framework may not be agile enough to cope with the changing threat landscape posed by botnets.

The efficacy of the CRTCs proposed approach may be quite low, as it mostly addresses the symptoms of botnets in a piecemeal fashion, rather than creating resilient cybersecurity systems which can deal with evolving threats. As such, the creation of a framework focused on individual threats will not, in and of itself, address the problem: botnets will mutate in terms of their approach and servers will migrate, ultimately making users and institutions no safer in the long run. There is also the opposite risk that block lists will become overly broad and deny internet users access to legitimate content in the name of preventing botnet spread.

Independent internet provider Teksavvy: In short, network-level blocking of malicious botnet traffic as envisioned in [the CRTC proposal] would break the internet and introduce risks to the open internet without effectively addressing its intended target or enhancing the security and safety of the internet in Canada.

If the commission approves a botnet-fighting framework internet customers should have the option of opting in, it adds, and ensure privacy and minimize collection of user data.

Distributel, another independent ISP: Provisions that protect and ensure end-user privacy, place end-users in control of their decision to participate, and minimize the monitoring, collection and usage of end-user information will be of central importance if the Commission were to proceed with the implementation of a network-level blocking framework.

The Public Interest Advocacy Centre: There is limited evidence on the record thus far to support the assertion that network-level anti-botnet efforts are sufficiently effective at catching most malicious botnets and at minimizing false-positives. Consequently, PIAC submits that the evidence, at this time, only supports commission intervention in the form of voluntary guidelines for ISPs, such as a best practices guide, over mandatory standards, such as a network-level botnet blocking framework, since the benefits of network-level anti-botnet efforts do not clearly outweigh the negative effects of anti-botnet activities on civil liberties and consumer rights.

The Canadian Internet Registry Authority (which oversees the .ca domain): Adoption of a new network-level blocking framework by ISPs must be voluntary. There should be a simple mechanism for users to opt-out of any filtering provided by an ISP. The decision to block a given cyber threat should not be made by just one actor. To prevent a single point of failure, the framework should provide for multiple certified parties to offer block lists, and use that certification as a key oversight mechanism. Parties providing block lists must be independent from any internet service provider or content provider.

The Samuelson-Glushko Canadian Internet Policy & Public Interest Clinic: (CIPPIC): The CRTC has the power to authorize but not compel filtering for network security purposes. It is also important to note that, with the rapid expansion of networked and connected devices, most effective botnet mitigation efforts will occur within a customers home network.

The Digital ID and Authentication Council of Canada: Instead of pursuing a top-down, one-size-fits all technical and regulatory options, it would be simpler and more beneficial to pursue citizen-focused solutions to prevent malicious internet traffic. Solutions for consideration include access control via connections from a secure digital ID wallet. These technologies are viable, built in Canada, and shift the focus from government oversight and surveillance to individual empowerment.

This security software helps organizations quickly investigate, detect, remediate, and recover from advanced threats to ensure that compromised devices are back online and ready for use.

Logging in to the dashboard to get an overview of all of my clients is very helpful. It shows me which endpoints need a reboot, a scan, or a software upgrade. I can push all of those things outright from the dashboard. I also have the ability in a single click to drill down deeper to the endpoint level from the dashboard.

Some of the program update features are kind of cumbersome. Weve found that we need to run the software update multiple times to make sure everything is updated on a regular basis. The thing that I would change here about this function is setting an update to be released. As soon as a workstation comes online, it reaches out to the management console to see if it holds the released software. I think this would be a huge update to the present setup.

The policy hierarchy is a bit convoluted. There are global site policies and also individual policies. Sometimes new features can only be applied to global policies, which are difficult if you only implemented local group policies.

Sometimes it detects wrong or false malware and viruses. Thus, it should provide some useful features so that this problem can be resolved. It may slow down sometimes as its a large program and due to its heavy processes. If your systems and networks are under the scan process, itll slow down other processes of your systems. Thus, you may not be able to work while scanning.

Malware can penetrate into operating systems even after robust security measures.

Malware on a Mac may sound bizarre, but in reality, its existence cant be doubted. Malwarebytes State of Malware Report 2021 tells that Malware accounted for 1.5% of all Mac detections in 2020, and the rest of the detections comprised of potentially unwanted programs (PUPs) and adware. Even though Apple adopts strict security measures to protect its devices, there are certain ways malware can attack your beloved MacOS.

Similarly, Microsoft Windows Defender works at its best at malware protection; there can still be gaps in security measures that malware can take advantage of.

Many malware signs can tell if your macOS, Android, iOS, or Windows device is prone to malicious intent. When you speculate that the malware signals converge toward malware, here are five ways to help you remove it.

Debarring your device from accessing the internet will help you restrict the damage that the malware was continuously causing. Isolate your device and prevent data exchanges between your device and the malware server.

You must go offline, but dont give in to your urge to shut down your device. There are examples in cyberspace, especially in cases ofransomware, where malicious software is programmed to delete your encrypted files if you choose to turn the power off.

Wait until you confirm the presence of malware by using a malware scanner equipped with antivirus software. If you get a confirmation, call in an informed security professional who can help you deal with it.

Safe mode uses or allows only those applications that are critical to your devices basic functionalities. If an attacker has programmed malware to load automatically, entering safe mode will prevent it.

Once youre confident that youve avoided a situation where your data can be deleted permanently by malware, you can restart your device. You can enter safe mode in Mac by holding the Shift key when you restart your device and the Apple logo appears. Continue holding the shift key until you move to your login page and then release the key.

If you're a Windows 10 user, you can click the Windows button and go to power. Hold down theshift key and restart. Choose troubleshoot and go to advanced options where you'll find start-up settings. Under start-up settings, click restart, and you can find various options to boot in the safe mode.

Make sure you dont log in to your account or click on show password when the malware is still present. Its advisable to keep yourself out of sensitive accounts to prevent exposure of information.

When you have entered the safe mode, remove temporary files on your system. Deleting temporary files will help expedite antivirus scanning, and might even remove the malware if it was programmed to start while booting.

To remove the temporary files in Microsoft Windows you can use the disk cleanup tool. You can find it in Windows Administrative Tools listed in the start menu. Go to the disk clean up tool, scroll through files to delete list, and choose temporary files.

MacOS users can go to the main desktop, and press shift+command+G.In the finder window, enter the command ~/Library/Cachesand tap go. You'll find a new window with Mac's temporary files. Select all files using command+A and then press command+Delete.You'll have to enter your Mac's password here to complete deletion of temporary files.

Malware steals a substantial amount of processing power from your device. If you check your activity monitor, you can see the applications that have questionable CPU usage. When youre not using an application and its consuming a lot of processing power, it simply means that something isnt right. There can be malicious code behind it working to invade your information.

If you detect anything suspicious on your device, quit malicious applications at once to prevent it from any damage.

Once youve gathered evidence of malware on your device, its time to ascertain it. You can use antivirus software equipped with malware removal features to detect and remove different malware types attacking your device.

Antivirus programs can catch standard malicious entities across your device and protect you from emanating threats. If the type of malware youre dealing with has just embarked upon cyberspace, you may have to get an on-demand antivirus that has an updated threat database.

Malware can modify your browsers homepage to reinfect your device. Ensure your homepages authenticity so that if the threat persists, you can get rid of it.

You can check the homepages authenticity and clear the cache in Google Chrome and Safari through these steps:

1. Find the option to verify your homepage in the search engine tab, listed under Google Chrome settings. For Safari, you can make relevant changes in the preference section under general settings.

2. Find the clear browsing history section in the privacy and security settings of Google Chrome, and place a tick mark on cached images and files. For Safari, go to preferences, dive into privacy, manage website data, and choose the remove all option.

Malware removal follows the same basic idea for Windows and Mac, but differs in the removal process. For example, you need a different set of functions to enter Macs safe mode than Windows.

Now that youve walked through the process of removing malware, start protecting your assets from malware threats with leading antivirus software on the market.
