21 Minimum ICT Standard 21 Cyber Security Threats don t stop at the Swiss border In ,033 cybercrime cases were reported to police in Switzerland, compared to 11,575 in 2015 and 5,330 in A survey from the firm KPMG found that 88% of Swiss companies have experienced cyber-attacks in the past year compared to 54% in Based on a more recent case study from 2017 conducted by ICT Switzerland, ISB, ISSS and SQS More than a third of SMEs are affected by cyberattacks: The risk of cyber-attacks is strongly underestimated: Protection against cyber-attacks is insufficient:

22 Minimum ICT Standard 22 In August 2018 The Swiss Government released the minimum standard for improving ICT resilience. Serves as a recommendation Based on international recognized standards, NIST Cybersecurity Framework Core Can be used by any small business or enterprise (FREE) What techniques can restore capabilities? What processes and assets need protection? What techniques can contain impact of incidents? What safeguards are available? What techniques can identify incidents?

23 Minimum ICT Standard 23 It s not that complicated Mapping the framework to real world activities Function Example Identify Hardware Inventory: Asset Management / AD/AzureAD, ConfigMgr/Intune Protect Detect Respond Recover Make use of Security Configuration Baselines Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection, Vulnerability Scanning Define a Cyber Security Incident response plan. Define processes how to recover from an incident Assessing Microsoft 365 security solutions using the NIST Cybersecurity Framework
