Cubic Defense Applications

Cyber Attacks Up 300% Since 2005

Threats diverse and expanding• Foreign government sanctioned

and/or financed• Politically/militarily/economically

motivated• Domestic and International• Organizations as well as individual

actors• Shift from “nuisance” attacks to

intent to damage• Goal: disruption, destruction and

theft• Must also consider “collateral

damage”– Information disruption caused by some

unrelated physical disruption

Incidents Reported to US-CERT

Attacks continue to rise• Up 200% since 2006 (& over 300% since 05)• Increasing in complexity and coordination
