Estrategias archivísticas y técnicas para la protección de la información y archivos en el MinTic frente a ciberataques

Abstract

This monograph delves into the gaps and challenges facing information security in Colombian government ministries, which are grappling with increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks. Using a qualitative methodology and a documentary approach, regulatory frameworks, international standards such as ISO 27001, NIST, and COBIT, as well as real-life cases, such as the cyberattack on IFX Networks, were examined. The study reveals that factors such as the lack of robust protocols, limited technical resources, and insufficient staff training increase vulnerability. Comprehensive strategies based on international models and the creation of institutional policies adapted to the Colombian reality are suggested. Among the most important findings, the need for cybersecurity education, the strengthening of legislation, and the promotion of an organizational culture focused on prevention are highlighted. The implementation of an Information Security Management System (ISMS) is proposed as a key tool to ensure the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of government information.
