Cybersecurity is one of the FBI’s highest priorities. Our strategy is multifaceted. We take aim at the actors, disrupt their operations, and go after their money. One of the most important actions a business can take in preparing for a cyber security incident is to make a cyber incident response plan and include the FBI in that plan. When the FBI quickly engages with a company hit by a cyber-attack, we’re able to share indicators that help network defenders identify malicious activity and intelligence about the actors that inform a company’s decision-making during a crisis. As the cyber threat has evolved over the past 20 years, one thing has remained the same: The FBI is at the center of acting on cyber threat information to provide support to victims and impose costs on cybercriminals.
