ICS-CERT’s Mission
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) National Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center (NCCIC) includes the Industrial Control Systems Cyber Emergency Response Team (ICS-CERT), whose mission is to guide a cohesive effort between government and industry to improve the cyber security posture of control systems within the nation’s critical infrastructure. NCCIC/ICS-CERT assists control systems vendors and asset owners/operators to identify security vulnerabilities and develop sound mitigation strategies that strengthen their cyber security posture and reduce risk.
As a functional component of the NCCIC, the ICS-CERT is a key component of DHS’s Strategy for Securing Control Systems. The primary goal of the strategy is to build a long-term common vision where effective risk management of control systems security can be realized through successful coordination efforts including, but not limited to providing situational awareness in the form of actionable intelligence, coordinating the responsible disclosure of vulnerabilities and associated mitigations, and sharing and coordinating vulnerability information and threat analysis through information products and alerts.
ICS-CERT Advisories
Advisories provide timely information about current security issues, vulnerabilities, and exploits. A complete list of all ICS-CERT Advisories by Vendor can be viewed at: https://ics-cert.us-cert.gov/advisories-by-vendor.
ICS-CERT Alerts
An ICS-CERT Alert is intended to provide timely notification to critical infrastructure owners and operators concerning threats or activity with the potential to impact critical infrastructure computing networks. A complete list of all ICS-CERT Alerts by Vendor can be viewed at: https://ics-cert.us-cert.gov/alerts-by-vendor.
The MDSISC is engaged with networks of hospitals and manufacturers in the medical device security arena to develop solutions, identify best practices, and facilitate the sharing and exchange of information that will result in a more efficient and secure use of medical devices and related practices.
Alerts and Advisories
The following links are being provided as a “one-stop shopping” capability for all calendar year 2017 and 2018 published Alerts and Advisories that are general rather than specific to ransomware outbreaks impacting medical devices (e.g., Petya and Wanna Cry pages). The Petya and Wanna Cry alerts and advisories will continue to be posted to those pages on the MD-VIPER website. Links and relevant information will be posted as they are made available.
