The Trump administration is slated to release its rules for determining whether newly-discovered cybersecurity vulnerabilities should be disclosed or kept secret, Reuters reported Wednesday.

An anonymous national security official told Reuters that the guidelines are expected to be published Wednesday on the White House website.

The source added that the new rules will identify federal agencies involved in the decision-making process and will include more agencies than in the previous review process under the Obama administration, such as the departments of Commerce, Treasury and State.

Rob Joyce, the White House cybersecurity coordinator, said at a Washington Post event last month that the guidelines will include criteria used by an interagency panel and will also reveal the panel members.

NASA is set to conduct technology demonstration missions for two Cubesats that took off Sunday aboard Orbital ATK’s Cygnus spacecraft.

The agency said Tuesday it will conduct the Optical Communications and Sensor Demonstration and Integrated Solar Array and Reflectarray Antenna missions as part of the Small Spacecraft Technology Program.

“Our primary mission for OCSD is demonstrating laser communications, by using a laser on the spacecraft to downlink data to our optical ground stations on Mt. Wilson in California,” said Richard Welle, one of the principal investigators of the OCSD mission at The Aerospace Corp.

OCSD also seeks to evaluate the capability of small satellites for proximity operations.

The ISARA mission is designed to advance higher data downlink communications through the use of the Ka-band frequency and Cubesats equipped with solar cells and reflectarray antenna.

NASA will work with The Aerospace Corp. to conduct the ISARA mission, which seeks to facilitate the transmission of reflectarray antenna-derived signals to a ground station at the agency’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California and the evaluation of the mission’s downlink transmission.

Cygnus lifted off Sunday aboard an Antares rocket from NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia to deliver cargo to the International Space Station as part of the company’s eighth Commercial Resupply Services mission.

Cygnus will deploy the two Cubesats into a higher orbit to initiate the OCSD and ISARA missions once the spacecraft departs the orbiting laboratory.

Jeanette Manfra, an assistant secretary at the Department of Homeland Security, has said approximately 15 percent of federal agencies were found using Kaspersky Lab’s anti-virus software in their computer systems before DHS ordered a ban on the use of the Russian company’s software, Nextgov reported Tuesday.

DHS issued a binding operational directive in September that requires agencies to discontinue the use of Kaspersky’s anti-virus platforms in their systems within 90 days due to the company’s potential ties to the Russian government.

Manfra told House Science Committee members Tuesday that those agencies gained access to Kaspersky software through a package of digital security services.

She noted that about 94 percent of agencies were able to comply with the October deadline to screen their networks for the software and develop a plan to facilitate the removal of the tool from their systems.

Manfra also fielded questions from Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas), chairman of the House panel, on whether DHS has enough evidence that vulnerabilities in Kaspersky’s software have been exploited to compromise data in civilian agency networks.

“I want to do a thorough review to ensure that we have the full picture,” Manfra added.

The FBI and the Department of Homeland Security have released an alert saying the government of North Korea appears to have been using a malware to home in on telecommunications, finance and aerospace sectors since 2016, ZDNet reported Tuesday.

The FBI and DHS’ U.S. Computer Emergency Readiness Team said in the alert issued Tuesday that they identified internet protocol addresses and other threat indicators linked to the Fallchill malware.

Fallchill is a remote administration tool that infects a victim’s computer through the use of fraudulent Transport Layer Security communications and multiple proxies to obscure network traffic.

The agencies labeled North Korea’s network intrusion activity as “Hidden Cobra” that can potentially have “severe impacts” such as loss of proprietary data, disruption to operations, financial losses and potential harm to an institution’s reputation.

DHS urged administrators and users to adopt measures to protect computer networks from the malware and those include the use of application whitelisting to block malicious software and installation of latest software patches.
