It established the directorate as a means of using its unique intelligence capabilities to share threat information with companies and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/dod\/2019\/10\/09\/new-nsa-cyber-directorate-to-focus-on-industrial-base\/\" target=\"_blank\">defense industrial base<\/a> in a timely fashion to ensure they stay ahead of the most sophisticated threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSince we established the cybersecurity directorate a little over two years ago, we\u2019ve been doing great things. We\u2019ve been using intelligence and letting it drive risk mitigations and building up partnerships,\u201d Neal Ziring, the directorate\u2019s technical director said during a virtual presentation Feb. 1 hosted by INSA. \u201cHow do we do that at greater scale? How do we expand what we\u2019ve been able to do with the defense industrial base, for example, from 100 companies to 1,000 or even 10,000? How do we start getting cyber threat information out to lots and lots of partners and doing it at relevant speed?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In times of heightened international tensions, such as the current imbroglio with Russia, Ziring said cyber threats can increase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Working with other federal partners such as the Department of Homeland Security\u2019s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and the FBI, Ziring said his organization has used its unique intelligence insights to provide a fuller picture of what adversaries are doing and help defeat them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOne of the things we\u2019ve done in that regard \u2014 directly as a result of these heightened tensions \u2014 is issuing additional guidance published on nsa.gov. We\u2019re published jointly with CISA, FBI and others about specific threats and tradecraft of Russian actors and how to secure some of the systems that they tend to go after,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Securing artificial intelligence and machine learning<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As more Department of Defense entities are looking to incorporate machine learning and artificial intelligence into their practices and systems, NSA is in the beginning stages of understanding the security needs required to do so. NSA will be digging deeper under the hood to understand the security vulnerabilities across the entire lifecycle for applying machine learning or artificial intelligence into a system \u2014 such as a driverless vehicle \u2014 Ziring said, citing an example of how DoD might employ such technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Currently, it\u2019s not clear if traditional security measures with normal software would be enough to secure these technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAn AI or ML system can be so dependent on the things you do early in the lifecycle, like gathering training data and training initial models. We have to extend our security thinking back into those stages,\u201d Ziring said. \u201cThat will be a focus for us in the next few years, is thinking about how we can do that, do it better and then advise our customers as they adopt that technology, how to do it secure.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Working across the federal government, the directorate has exposed
