CISA hosts Cyber Storm 2020 with government, industry and international partners
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) was joined by government, industry and international partners for Cyber Storm 2020, a national cyber exercise designed to simulate response to a cyber crisis impacting the nation’s critical infrastructure.
The exercise assesses cybersecurity preparedness and examines incident response processes, procedures, and information sharing. It provides a venue for players to simulate the discovery of and response to a widespread coordinated cyberattack without the consequences of a real-world event. With approximately 2,000 participants over the course of three days, Cyber Storm is the nation’s most extensive cybersecurity exercise series, notes CISA.
