1. Threat Landscape understanding risks 3
Threat Profiles Relevant for any company / institution Cybercrime Targeted / Non-targeted Nation State • Nation State - depending on company profile can be espionage, intellectual property theft, sabotage Threats Insider Threat • Cybercrime - Most common, main goal is monetization • Insider Threat – monetization, sabotage / revenge • Hacktivism – indirect target for a political / social statement Hacktivism 4
Advanced threat actors Sources: Deloitte Threat Intelligence & Analysis program LEVEL OF CONCERN motivated by various causes, are targeting financial services with complex cyber attacks, combining cyber, human & physical elements Payments & trade fraud Phishing Weaponised Macro’s Critical infrastructure attacked Nation state entity Ransomware Malware targeting mobile devices & financial applications Exploit kits ER H IG H nt te In ER ER W LO W ct pa Im y ER W LO ER t ili ce Script kiddie LO ER H H ct ab ap pa Researcher/ journalist C en ER ER H r ur cc E R TU FU W Lone-wolf cyber criminals IG Spam O g in g er LO Hacktivist Data breaches ER IG Physical actions H H Em Biometrics for security, but also as a data goldmine Insider Cyber espionage POS Malware Web Application Attacks IG T EN R R Commercialized EMV exploits / “shimmers” go mainstream Corporate espionage groups H Disruption of Communications (DDOS) H U C Subverted blockchains impacts services On demand malware or automated misinformation Organized crime groups ‘Just Access’ Botnets Social engineering Im A.

Threat actors develop capabilities and change their attack vectors to take the least difficult approach into your network. For FSI we observed, however, more complex attacks, combining various attack vectors to achieve economic, political or competitive gain. Tracking industry trends can assist in understanding attack vector changes and form protective mitigation strategies. 5
Payment Incidents The SWIFT Heist • 2017 Oct - Far Eastern International Bank in Taiwan saw a transfer attempt of $60 m to banks in the US, Cambodia, and Sri Lanka. • 2016 Sep – SWIFT announced that three more banks had been attacked (without loss. ) • 2016 Jun – ISACA UA reports hackers stole $10 million from an unnamed Ukrainian bank through a SWIFT loophole. • 2016 Feb – Bangladesh central bank hit for $81 million. The attackers were able to compel the Federal Reserve Bank of New York to move money to accounts in the Philippines and Sri Lanka. • 2015 Jan - Ecuador's Banco del Austro (BDA) hit for $12 million. BDA instructed Wells Fargo (SF) and Citibank (NY) to transfer money to Hong Kong. BDA sued on the basis that the U. S. bank should have flagged the transactions as suspicious. Wells Fargo countered that security lapses in BDA’s own operations caused the Ecuadorean bank’s losses. The attack started from a stolen credentials. • 2015 – Failed attempt to steal from Vietnam’s Tien Phong Bank • 2013 – Dark. Seoul attack against South Korea banks, insurers, TV networks – Linux/Windows destructive wiper malware The European Banking Authority (2016 May) said domestic authorities should stress test banks for cyber risks. The SWIFT board defined five pillars of a cyber security program: information sharing, enhancing SWIFT tools, support transaction pattern detection and support for 3 rd party providers. 6
Ransomware Long tail damage • The Global cost for organizations will reach $5 billion by the end of 2017, 400% increase from 2016 • Ransomware’s aftermath can be more costly than the ransom itself • Maersk – est. $300 million n lost revenues • Global manufacturer from France reported the same attack would drain about $290 million in sales this year. Financial services: • 55% list ransomware as the biggest cyberattack threat vector • one third of them also say they have lost between $100, 000 and $500, 000 due to ransomware attacks 7 Source: “The aftermath of ransomware”, Deloitte

Cyber Resilience Perspective NIS Directive – to bring cybersecurity capabilities the same level of development in EU NIS Authority, CSIRT teams ECB initiative - “European Red Team Testing Framework” (in mgmt track) Sector resilience – efficient sharing of CTI Response and recovery in a safe and efficient manner are key Source: ECB, Cybercrime: from fiction to reality, IN FOCUS issue #2, 2017 10
EU Cybersecurity Initiatives EU Cybersecurity Strategy (2013) – includes increasing cyber resilience and reducing cybercrime European Agenda on Security (2015) – includes harmonizing collaboration on criminal investigations on cybercrime Digital Single Market Strategy (2015) - includes a public-private partnership (PPP) on cybersecurity signed on Jul’ 16 by the Commission and the European Cyber Security Organization (ECSO) Communication on Strengthening Europe’s Cyber Resilience System and Fostering a Competitive and Innovative Cybersecurity Industry (2016) - includes a set of measures aiming at Supporting the emerging single market for cybersecurity products and services in the EU European Commission proposal on a Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on the future of ENISA (2017) - the “Cybersecurity Act” enables the Agency to better support the Member States in implementing the NIS Directive and to counter particular threats more actively by becoming a centre of expertise on cybersecurity certification 11
GDPR Context Requirements • Enhanced Notification - The Data Protection Authority (DPA) must be informed within 72 hours of the discovery of a ‘serious’ incident, affected consumers must also be notified without delay • Detailed Reporting - Companies are required to document all aspects of data breach – what happened, what steps they took to fix it, remediation strategies “In light of the tight timescales for reporting a breach - it is important to have robust breach detection, investigation and internal reporting procedures in place” -- UK INFORMATION COMMISSIONERS OFFICE Preparing for the GDPR, 12 steps to take now, 14/3/2016 https: //ico. org. uk/for-organisations/data-protection- reform/overview-of-the-gdpr/breachnotification/
GDPR Context Challenges with Breach Notification § Lack of preparation ü Cross-functional planning and preparedness is key to success ü What processes can improve an organization's cyber resilience? § Lack of proven response – Audit and Accountability ü Tracking of critical data throughout the lifecycle of an incident ü Clear ownership & responsibility § Slow disclosure times – Time to notification ü Recognizing a ‘critical’ incident ü Building agile, responsive incident plans
2. Challenges for Incident & Crisis Management 14
Incident Impact - Real Cyberattack impact factors: § Technical investigation § Customer breach notification § Regulatory compliance § Attorney fees and litigation § Post-breach customer protection § Public relations § Cybersecurity improvements But also: § Insurance premium increases § Increased costs to raise debt § Impact of operational disruption 95% § Value of lost contract revenue § Devaluation of trade name § Loss of intellectual property § Lost value of customer relationship Source: Beneath the surface of a cyberattack (Deloitte, 2016)

The differences between an incident and a crisis An information security incident is an unwanted or unexpected information security event that has a significant probability of compromising business operations and threatening information security. (as referred from ISO 27000: 2016) What is an incident? • Clear parameters • Can be dealt with existing resources • Pre-defines operational procedures • Confined to process or segment involved • Unlikely to impact the entire organization A crisis is a badly managed incident. (Crisis management wisdom) 19
The differences between an incident and a crisis What is a crisis? • Complex, uncertain and diffuse situation (or perception) • Beyond the scope of everyday business • Threatens the operation, safety and reputation of the company • Likely to impact the whole organization, stakeholders and / or society at large © 2016 Deloitte The Netherlands 20 20
