information systems. Also, NSA has become the lead agency responsible for monitoring and protecting all the federal government’s computer networks from acts of cyberterrorism. Therefore, NSA agents are responsible for detecting and exploiting weakness in an oppositional country’s computerized secret coding systems. The NSA’s function in protecting classified computer data demands an eclectic mix of agents who specialize in a wide range of professional fields, including researchers, computer scientists, mathematicians, and …show more content…
Cybersecurity of energy delivery systems is critical for protecting the energy infrastructure and the integral function that it serves in the citizen’s life (Fritsch et al, 2015). Energy delivery systems are the mainstay of the energy sector which is a network of processes that produce, transfer, and distribute energy and the unified electronic and communication devices that monitor and control those processes. Thus, energy delivery systems contain of control systems, the brains that operate and monitor the energy structure. DOE enable tools for stakeholders to improve cyber intrusion detection, remediation, recovery, and restoration capabilities.
Department of Homeland Security (DHS)
The National Cyber Security Division (NCSD) of DHS is of major importance in fighting against computer crime (Fritsch et al, 2015). The NCSD is stored within the office of Cyber Security and Communications and opened in 2003 with the charge of protecting cyber infrastructure. Precisely, the NCSD has a double task which is to build and maintain an effective national cyberspace response system and, implement a cyber risk management program to protect critical infrastructure.
