The supply chain for an organization when supported by new information technology it needs some cyber security. The Russian government has adopted a certiï¬Âcation in technology requirements and initiated the National Software Platform effort based on Russian proprietary software. This encourages the technological independence and to become a technology services exporter. In India for formulating a robust and globally competitive national presence, innovation policies for the cyber security system is developed for giving preference to the local IT suppliers. In the US, the governing bodies formulate forums for sharing information on the cyber security by communicating with the technological group. Furthermore, re-evaluating, developing and maintaining cyber security strategy is crucial for the development of the concerned countries. The United States also published National Strategy to Secure Cyberspace in the year 2003 for developing a national strategy for Homeland Security for protecting the state from terrorist attacks. The insurance company also encompasses some cyber security technologies like DHS and security vendors.

Caldwell, T. (2013). Plugging the cybersecurity skills gap.

This article focuses on the gaps incyber security skills to overcome the situation of the cyber-crime.  The report shed light on the fact that every employee of the organization must have the ability to handle the cyber-crime activities otherwise intruders will attack and will do serious harm to them. This needs efficient and skilled employees that most of the institute has a crisis. The qualified person in handling the cyber-crime activities relies on the age range of the 30-39yers old while the percentage of these professional decreases with increase in age. The rapid development of the information technology is the primary reason why there is a shortage of the skilled cyber experts in the organization. Furthermore, people in the institute especially women do not fill the cyber security roles to lack of interest in them. In order to overcome these issues the employee provides practical training so that they can handle the adversity in the cyber issues.

This article is on the cyber security issues in the smart grid project. People uses supply network for electricity to fulfill their requirement and organization usesthe digital technology to analyses the changes occur in the society. This makes it crucial for them to maintain a secure cyber technology so that no intruder can leak customer information and create massive blackout and destruction of infrastructure. These hackers attained the information from network resources from the stored information. The denial-of-service (DoS) attackis a common cyber-crime in this field that depicts the block or corruption of the communication accomplished by the electricity service provider including made attempt to delay in service.The industry detects this kind of the cyber-criminalactivities by adopting many procedures like signal-based detection that measure the signal strength information to detect whether there is an occurrence of the attack by some intruder or not.  Packet-based detection is used to detect the attack by measuring the transmitted result of each packet and analyze the event of potential attacks by any transmission failures. Proactive and hybrid methods are used to identify the DoS attack by sending the probing packets to test or measuring the status of the attacker and formulation of a suitable method by mixing the above mentioned procedures for cyber security.

The primary reason for the adaptation of the cyber security is to measure the protection of the information technology, the level of the protection approach and the endeavor of the cyber expert to implement such approaches to implementing the cybersecurity. Cybercrime is mostly done by the high school and university students and they mainly steal the personal data like credit card details, ATM pins, and personal data from their computers. In this journal, the measurement to protect strengths and weaknesses of the
software and hardware used in the organization to detect the ability of the intruder is discussed that defines the complexity of the cyber security. Three kinds of attack are usually noticed on the internet – the loss of service and destruction of information through DoS, misuse of critical information to do significant impact and control of cyberspace and using them as a weapon.

The cyber security approach that is analyzed in this journal article is the cyber advancements to monitor functions in the field of the power grid to supply electricity to the local communal.Advanced Metering Infrastructure
(AMI), Wide-Area Monitoring,Protection and Control Systems (WAMPAC) and Demand Response (DR) are the information technology that is used in the power grid. WAMPAC determines corrective
actions for each contingency through high-speed communication links to mitigate the issues involved in the cyber security. There are three kinds of attack that is discussed in the journal – timing attack, which should be executed on the order of 100–150 msafter the disturbance and is detected by the analyzing delay in the communication and have intended to deluge the
communication network with packets. Data integrity attack is the corruption of the data in the opposite direction of the control flow by directly attack the sensor data or actuator data. In replay attacks, the intruder manipulates the control messages by hijacking the transmitted packetsin transportation. This can be reduced by implementing efficient data encryption for the communication of the cyber details.
