In response to cyber threats, the Biden administration introduced NSM-22, updating critical infrastructure protection efforts by designating CISA for coordinating security, emphasizing intelligence sharing, reaffirming sectors, and stressing minimum security requirements. This approach incorporates lessons from previous policies, highlighting shared responsibility, risk-based strategies, and timely information exchange with the private sector. CISA's enhanced role includes collaborating with sector agencies and forming the Federal Senior Leadership Council to coordinate efforts
The NSM mandates creating a list of systematically important entities and focuses on securing the water sector. Future actions entail submitting reports on intelligence collection, information sharing, and ensuring sufficient budget for implementing these new security measures, emphasizing collaboration between the government and private sector stakeholders.https://www.csoonline.com/article/2097026/__trashed-101.html
