180218 Cyber Storm - human elements
Winning the Cyber work force (Hall: Army Cyber Institute at West Point)
cyber is 8 of 13 courses at West Point
national programmes aimed at school children
school competitions (eg CyberPatriot)
competitive leagues
including training
gamificaiton
national cyber league
professional bodies
including certification'
agility
hire teams rather than individuals
professionalisation
including different specialists that contribute to each role
so multi-discipline teamwork
avoid stove pipes
but everyone baselines to cyber security
experienced difficulties in lateral recruiting
what rank
how would experience translate
vocabulary & nomenclature
to the general population
few people 'cyber' making really big money
Educating Leaders Fit for the Cyber Storm.
Dr Daria Daniels Skodnik (Canada)
immediate threat requiring national/international cooperation
cyber
a new war fighting domain
inc military, economy
intersection of global tensions
feature of Russian warfare
target networks
redefined notion of warfare
military more effective when combined with other forms
including IW
4th industrial revolution
different between physical and cyber blurred
global race to develop AI that replicate human decision
mil, economical, ethical, privacy challenges
risk of escalation
but humans will control machines for the foreseeable future
hyper war
high tech war
increased decision making (instantaneous)
so will change the way we wage war
will need mil/industry cooperation
leadership in new era
how to deal with hyper war
PME is necessary
will need continuous integration of military forces
will be more than a military matter
will rely in the human capital
PME
support decision making
human/machine teaming
geopolitical
CH / Russia
rise of populism / nationalism
volatile US decision making
so seek new partnerships outside US
Enhance Joint Military Education with AI Based Learning Systems
questions
how can commanders make decisions at cyber speed
what alternatives can be evaluated in a specific context at cyber speed
what are the characteristics of cyberspace
speed
to milli seconds
in the virtual environment
but connected to the physical world
and can cause damage
a necessity of society
change the way we get info
social and cultural
threshold for war
below?
so what options
two actors
humans
machines
different strengths
consistency in exercises is key but difficult due to individual focus
cyber storms
affect many domains
differ from wars due to size and complexity
AI based model
takes challenge of speed
links ends with ways and means
supports
autonomy
autonomy
a spectrum
dynanmica create and injects new challenges
compare machine / human results
procedure
creates evaluated options (esp with context)
maps state of events to context
extracts features
selects a response
benefits
speed / constency
sensing enviornments learning from them
complexity
but computers can make mistakes
inc bias
Cyber skills gap (UK) (Kaminska & Silomon)
traditionally a technical problem = technical solution
education & training an afterthought
cyber competitions
included engaging kids
university teaching & research
accredited centres of excellence
doctoral training
inc industry deep dives
governmental
need definition what a cyber job is
develop a Cyber Security Body of Knowledge
new UK Cyber Security Council
Royal Chartered Status
MOD
Cyber School
cyber emergency
usually related to critical national infrastruture
so
need skills
bespoke or legacy systems to the internet
concerns about state actors
so workforce
National Cyber Security Centre
part of GCHQ
issues
easy access to intel
but tension between secrecy and a public institution
WannaCry
targeted UK health systems in NHS
UK firms spend very little on cyber security (ave 25 pounds)
challenges
rate of technical change in relation to education (2 decades from primary school to uni)
private sector wages
lack of gender diversity
Q&A
healthcare has the greatest threat inside than outside
individuals focus is elsewhere
Education for Cyber Disaster Response and
Resilience (Adam Henry)
degree of preparedness for multiple events
Singapore
public service computers not connected to the internet
Russia: if attack isolate from the internet but maintain normal internet services
four priority areas
understanding cyber risk
strengthen governance
ressoucing
fours Rs Principles: don't need to reinvent the wheel just because its cyber
reduction
readiness
responses
recovery
resilience needs whole of society effort
cheaper to prevent than recovery
degree of education in Australia
only teach basic/intermediate
up to masters level
need simulation to make progress
a cyber blue print
education/awareness
is not a one size fits all
local, state, federal have unique circumstances
strategies, budgets, maturity levels & appetite
stocktaking to identify strengths and weaknesses
what skills are missing?
issue with needing 5 yrs experience
therefore teams of experience/new
so
education type
college
WoG?
level of expertise
expert
field of education
broad
purpose
all levels as approparite
Mind the gap: Western military adaptation to
cyber versus Western theory of victory
changing / adapting defences have prevented wars by being adaptable
approaches
limited
define organisation
keep out
tactical
discover new weapons
strategic revolutions
when something new comesup
defence adaption process
new tech & security challenges
technical & conceptual break through
to a new device or system
then
system develope & depleoyment
doctrine and force structure
use in comabte
militaries tend to be good at what they do and tend to improve
usually needs civilian leadership to do different
so what is victory?
ability to detect
usually has been going on from some time
protect society by preventing enemies' access?
this is unlikely in cyber
conclusions
ability to manipulate data may
require new ways to manage data / prevent access to data
lead to an act of war
but this is not new to cyber space
states are attributing more quickly
alliances are emerging as a way to combat this
Info Ops remain
need a plan
timeliness
soverignity in cyber space
what rules
collaboration
how can education, govt, industry work together
educating leaders
speed in cyber
cyber hygiene
cyber skills gap
resilience
war gaming
what makes cyber unique?
no real cyber community
data is holding cyber storm war gaming back
