[CDP-development] CISA, FBI, MS-ISAC Cybersecurity Advisory on LockBit 3.0 Ransomware

[Masse, Theresa]

FYSA

As the nation's cyber defense agency, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and Multi-State Information Sharing and Analysis Center (MS-ISAC) published a joint Cybersecurity Advisory <https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/cybersecurity-advisories/aa23-075a> (CSA) with recommended actions and mitigations to protect against LockBit 3.0 ransomware.

Actions that organizations can take today to mitigate the ransomware cyber threat include: prioritize remediating known exploited vulnerabilities (KEVs), train users to recognize and report phishing attempts, and enable and enforce multifactor authentication with strong passwords.

CISA, FBI and MS-ISAC encourage information technology (IT) network defenders to review the advisory, implement the recommended mitigations in the advisory to limit potential adversarial techniques and reduce the risk of compromise by LockBit 3.0 ransomware.

This joint CSA is part of an ongoing #StopRansomware<https://www.cisa.gov/stopransomware> effort to publish advisories for network defenders that detail various ransomware variants and ransomware threat actors. It is available on stopransomware.gov, along with other advisories on the ransomware threat and no-cost resources. With our partner agencies, CISA is committed to helping organizations protect against all cyber threats through information sharing, services, and resources.
