WHITE HOUSE ANNOUNCES RANSOMWARE TASK FORCE — AND HACKING BACK IS ONE OPTION

The administration is promoting efforts to help agencies go on defense and
offense against hackers whose economically paralyzing attacks pose a growing
threat to the U.S.

The Biden administration is unleashing a range of options to stem the growing
ransomware threat, a senior administration official said — including offering
rewards as high as $10 million for help identifying the perpetrators.

Other options on the table include launching disruptive cyberattacks on hacker
gangs, as well as developing partnerships with businesses to speed up the
sharing of information about ransomware infections.



The White House has formed a previously unannounced cross-government task force
to coordinate a series of defensive and offensive measures against ransomware,
as POLITICO first reported Wednesday. The actions follow a series of
high-profile hacks that have underscored how cybersecurity weaknesses can wreak
havoc on American society.



With the task force’s oversight, federal agencies are taking actions such as
promoting digital resilience among critical infrastructure companies, working to
halt ransom payments made through cryptocurrency platforms and coordinating
activities with U.S. allies, according to a Senate aide who requested anonymity
to speak candidly.

The interagency group is giving the White House frequent updates on agencies’
efforts, the senior administration official said, adding that the body is
“tracking, on a weekly basis,” efforts to “implement the national
counter-ransomware campaign.” The official, who briefed reporters late
Wednesday, spoke anonymously per White House policy.

Among other steps, the State Department will offer rewards — totaling up to $10
million — for information leading to the identification of alleged cyber
criminals, especially the hackers behind state-sanctioned breaches of critical
infrastructure, the administration official said.

The administration is also exploring the possibility of new partnerships with
cyber insurance providers and critical infrastructure companies so that
businesses and the government can share information about ransomware attacks
more quickly. “We hope to have more for you on this effort in the coming weeks,”
the official told reporters.

Anne Neuberger, the deputy national security adviser for cyber and emerging
technology, also previewed the administration’s plan during a 35-minute briefing
for senators on Wednesday afternoon.

The announcement of the task force comes as lawmakers and experts are pressuring
President Joe Biden to respond more forcefully to Russian President Vladimir
Putin’s inaction against ransomware operators, who in recent months have
paralyzed much of the East Coast’s gasoline supply, crippled a major meat
processing company and breached the IT software vendor Kaseya and hundreds of
companies connected to it.




“We’ve got to send a very strong, even disproportionate, message to Russia that
we’re not going to tolerate this,” House Homeland Security ranking member John
Katko (R-N.Y.) told Bloomberg last week.

But Biden faces few good options for altering Putin’s calculus. Years of
sanctions have proven ineffective, cryptocurrency regulations face daunting
prospects, allies in Europe are heavily reliant on Russian energy supplies and
retaliatory cyberattacks could backfire.

Congress is already pursuing its own options. A bipartisan group of senators is
expected to introduce legislation this week or next to require a wide range of
companies, including critical infrastructure operators, to report hacks to the
government. The House Homeland Security Committee is crafting similar
legislation. Federal officials say a lack of information about private-sector
breaches hampers their ability to protect the country from digital threats.

Ransomware adds another policy challenge to Congress’s plate

During Wednesday’s briefing for lawmakers, officials asked for new authority to
establish mandatory cyber standards for critical infrastructure, according to a
second Senate aide, who also requested anonymity to discuss the private call.

Neuberger also told senators that the White House will announce three other
steps in the coming days, the first aide said.

DHS’ Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency will launch an interagency
website, stopransomware.gov, to collect defensive guidance from various
agencies. The Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network will
convene a virtual conference on ransomware in August. And the State Department
will use its “Rewards for Justice” program to offer cash payments for tips
leading to the arrests of ransomware operators.

Meanwhile, a glimmer of hope for the crusade against ransomware materialized on
Tuesday, when the REvil gang, which carried out the Kaseya attack, abruptly went
dark. It is unclear if the U.S. or Russia disrupted REvil’s infrastructure or if
the criminals shut down their servers themselves, as other groups have done in
the past following internal squabbles or increased scrutiny.

The senior administration official declined to clear up the mystery for
reporters. “We’ve noted the disruption of REvil infrastructure and have no
further comment on that at this time,” the official said.

Neuberger did not address the REvil outage during her briefing with lawmakers,
Sen. Angus King (I-Maine) told reporters during a separate media call.

As the pace and impact of cyberattacks intensify, Biden is only now getting his
core team in place to deal with them. On Monday, Chris Inglis was sworn in as
the first-ever national cyber director, overseeing defensive efforts from the
White House. And on Tuesday, hours after the Senate confirmed her, Jen Easterly
started her job as director of CISA, giving the beleaguered agency its first
permanent chief since last November.

Neuberger, who joined the White House in January as Biden’s first senior cyber
official, did almost all of the talking during the Senate briefing, according to
the first Senate aide.

Joining her on the call were Eric Goldstein, the executive assistant director
for cybersecurity at CISA; Todd Conklin, a counselor to Deputy Treasury
Secretary Wally Adeyemo; Richard Downing, a deputy assistant attorney general in
DOJ’s Criminal Division; and Herb Stapleton, a deputy assistant director of the
FBI’s Cyber Division.

Lawmakers asked general questions during their call, the first Senate aide said.
Sen. Mike Rounds (R-S.D.), the ranking member on the armed services panel’s
cyber subcommittee, asked about potential military cyber operations to confront
ransomware gangs. He was told that that issue was better addressed in a
classified setting.

King, the co-chair of the congressionally chartered Cyberspace Solarium
Commission, welcomed the administration’s new initiatives but said they would
probably do little to deter Putin.

“They’re necessary steps in order to deal with this issue,” he told reporters,
but “the deterrence starts with the president’s interactions with Putin over the
last month or so.”

“Vladimir Putin understands power, and he understands risk,” King said, “and he
has to understand that this kind of conduct by the Russian state is unacceptable
and will entail costs.”
