Developing a Framework to Evaluate the Cyber-protection of the Information Sharing across Different Types of Supply Chain Governance

Abstract:

The rising reliance on digital technologies to share information across different actors in the supply chain and the evolving integration of systems across organizations to achieve end-to-end visibility has increased the supply chain’s exposure to cyber threats. This paper focuses on developing a framework for cyber protection of inter-organizational information sharing in the supply chain, focusing on governance mechanisms adopted by the leading actors. The governance models and the information-sharing type shape the cyber protection required in terms of cybersecurity investments, training, and organizational structures. This paper extends the concepts of the Port Community System (PCS) towards a more comprehensive complex supply chain structure.

(Mis)Information Operations: An Integrated Perspective

Abstract: 

The massive diffusion of social media fosters disintermediation and changes the way users are informed, the way they process reality, and the way they engage in public debate. The cognitive layer of users and the related social dynamics define the nature and the dimension of informational threats. Users show the tendency to interact with information adhering to their preferred narrative and to ignore dissenting information. Confirmation bias seems to account for users’ decisions about consuming and spreading content; and, at the same time, aggregation of favored information within those communities reinforces group polarization.

Improving Cyber-Security Awareness on Industrial Control Systems: The CockpitCI Approach

ABSTRACT

Cyber-threats are one of the most significant problems faced by modern Industrial Control Systems (ICS), such as SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) systems, as the vulnerabilities of ICS technology become serious threats that can ultimately compromise human lives. This situation demands a domain-specific approach to cyber threat detection within ICS, which is one of the most important contributions of the CockpitCI FP7 project (http://CockpitCI.eu). Specifically, this paper will present the CockpitCI cyber-detection and analysis layer, including a description of its components, in terms of role, operation, and remote management.
