6 True needs for CSIRT/SOCs 1. When attack hits: is there a skilled team ready to respond and handle cyber-incidents in the well known and internationally accepted Incident Response method? 2. Cyber crime is international: is your team trusted by international community to provide support in your investigations?

7 True needs for CSIRT/SOCs 3. Do you have clear definition: on cyber-incident and clear automationassisted processes to handle it? If yes, how do you know it works efficiently? 4. Do you believe that ITIL brought efficiency to your IT operations? If yes, then CSIRT processes would bring the same to Cyber Security Response (CSIRT/SOCs)

8 Who should have CSIRT/SOCs? When organization is substantially digital, i.e.: 1. Processes a lot of data especially sensitive: personal, financial, etc. 2. Automates processes heavily 3. Is part of critical infrastructure 4. Is highly susceptible to the cyber threats

9 Define: CSIRT/SOC/CERT/ISAC IT Security Teams matures into: Computer Security Incident Response Teams (CSIRT) CSIRT is synonymous to: Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT), Cybersecurity Incident Response Team (CIRT), Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT), Information Sharing and Analysis Center (ISAC) Security Operations Center (SOC) is: A partial operations of CSIRT model, primarily focused on internal monitoring, detection and triage.

11 Securing digital assets concept CSIRT/SOC Every digital asset has exposure Governance Establishment of CSIRT/SOCs enables proactive and measured way of dealing with cyber issues: National Government Sectorial (e.g. banking, energy) Internal (SOC) Private CSIRTs Digital assets Data centers Data networks Information systems Servers Exchange platforms, Certificate authorities Technologies Processes People Who is protecting digital assets?

Certified BGD e-gov CIRT establishment is the first stage of the National CIRT development process.

14 Results support continuous growth in cyber ratings In 2017 Bangladesh went up in cyber security ratings of International Telecommunications Unit (ITU): Reached maturing country s status along with other 76 countries Made to the TOP 15 countries in Asia & Pacific and reached 53 position out of 165. Reached maximum level in technical cyber security measures

15 Results support continuous growth in cyber ratings Foreign investors use ITU Global Cyber Security Index as a reference to evaluate country s cyber wellness profile before making investment decisions

16 HOW TO MAKE IT WORK?

17 Establishing CSIRT/SOC Policy Makers / Board CSO/CISO International recognition CSIRT Response coordination (National CERT) Partners: LEA, IA, Private, Research Incidents detection, coordination, resolution Digital assets protection (Applications, Networks) Constituency
