This afternoon I joined Director Kirk and Geoffrey Jenista from Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) to discuss how to protect data from hackers and foreign adversaries. 

Hackers and foreign adversaries, such as China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea frequently look towards the United States for weaknesses that can be exploited and increasingly find them through internet connectivity. When cyber attacks occur, personal data and confidential information are targets that put Americans and the United States at risk.

I encourage everyone to research Cybersecurity Infrastructure Security Agency’s (CISA) tips to protect your data from nefarious actors. Some strategies CISA recommends involve backing up data, enabling multi-factor authentication, and keeping your software updated.
