While FIDO2 is “phishing-resistant” to credential stealing, it was also designed with the intent to further protect against session hijacking and man-in-the-middle (MiTM) attacks. Silverfort suggests that most applications do not protect the session tokens created after FIDO authentication is successful and that many identity providers are still vulnerable to MiTM and session hijacking attack types.
CISA recently updated its Public Safety Communications and Cyber Resiliency Toolkit with nine additional resources including an interactive graphic. The toolkit is designed to assist public safety agencies and others responsible for communications networks by providing the tools necessary to evaluate current resiliency capabilities.
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has published the following ICS vulnerability advisories, as well as alerts, updates, and bulletins:

CISA Releases Seventeen Industrial Control Systems Advisories
Analyst Comment (Jennifer Lyn Walker): The decision to pay or not to pay a ransomware extortion demand isn’t always as straightforward as we’d like. The NCSC puts forth some poignant considerations. Members are strongly encouraged to incorporate these considerations into ransomware response plans and discuss them with leadership BEFORE you experience a ransomware incident.
On Friday, CISA, the FBI, and MS-ISAC released a joint Cybersecurity Advisory (CSA): “#StopRansomware: Black Basta” which provides cybersecurity defenders tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) and indicators of compromise (IOCs) used by known Black Basta ransomware affiliates.

The recent slowdown in NIST’s National Vulnerability Database, which oversees CVE enrichment and provides the valuable cataloging of vulnerabilities that cyber professionals rely upon, has caused CISA to take action. NIST’s analysts have managed to analyze only 4523 of the 14,280 CVEs they received since the start of the year, making this an increasingly urgent problem. CISA has announced it is creating a new program, called “Vulnrichment,”, that aims to fill the CVE enrichment gap.
