Take Stock of Cyber Risk in Light of Russian Cyber Activity

This advisory highlights heightened risk from potential Russian nation-state cyber activity tied to the Ukraine conflict and recommends immediate defensive actions: regularly test and secure backups, implement or confirm DDoS protection for critical internet-facing assets, rehearse and update incident response plans (including contingencies for provider delays), and harden/segment public-facing servers with close monitoring for anomalous processes and outbound connections; it notes recent use of data wipers and DDoS in Ukraine as rationale for urgency.
