The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency is working with the private and public sector to amend the 2016 National Cyber Incident Response Plan next year.
CISA announced Friday that it is preparing to seek input from government agencies, critical infrastructure organizations and other industry partners to align the NCIRP with new cyber policies and technologies.
The NCIRP 2024 Planning Initiative will discuss advancements in ransomware and other cyber threats and improvements in public-private coordination over cyber incident response. It will also take into consideration the evolving capabilities of U.S. adversaries when it comes to online security.
“Our approach to update the NCIRP will be grounded in transparency and collaboration, recognizing that the private sector is often the first responder to many cyber incidents and that adversary campaigns increasingly transcend national borders,” said Eric Goldstein, CISA’s executive assistant director for cybersecurity.
National security officials and experts from the government and private sectors are gathering at the Potomac Officers Club’s 2023 Homeland Security Summit on Nov. 15. Be part of the event by registering now.
