CNI Shares Update on British Library Cyberattack
The Coalition for Networked Information (CNI) examined the British Library’s latest update on the cyberattack it suffered in October 2023. “This deserves wide review by leadership of organizations concerned with both information delivery and stewardship of cultural and intellectual heritage,” CNI states. “To what extent are information delivery and cultural memory and stewardship activities genuinely critical infrastructure that demand to be treated as such? Where does the responsibility lie, when it must be clearly above the level of individual institutions if these are genuinely critical functions? How do we deliberately introduce and manage redundancy in the interests of gaining resilience? As a society, what do we hope to accomplish for information delivery and stewardship of the cultural record in an environment of intensive cyber-attacks, whether motivated by criminal elements, geopolitics, or (increasingly) some hybrid of the two? What are the risks and the vulnerabilities?”For more information, read the news item.
