CISA Insights: Preparing for and Mitigating Foreign Influence Operations Targeting Critical Infrastructure

HHS Cybersecurity Program has issued an Alert (TLP: WHITE).

Executive Summary
Malicious actors use influence operations, including tactics like misinformation, disinformation, and malinformation (MDM), to shape public opinion, undermine trust, amplify division, and sow discord. Foreign actors engage in these actions to bias the development of policy and undermine the security of the U.S. and our allies, disrupt markets, and foment unrest. This CISA Insights product is intended to ensure that critical infrastructure owners and operators are aware of the risks of influence operations leveraging social media and online platforms.
