CISA and DOD discussed what the U.S. needs to successfully rollout 5G.

The Department of Homeland Security's Science & Technology Directorate and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) awarded $2 million to the Critical Infrastructure Resilience Institute (CIRI) to develop a network of cybersecurity institutes to train the next generation of cyber professionals and crush a ballooning cyber workforce shortage.

Cybersecurity tools and research are the Critical Infrastructure Resilience Institute's specialty.

Automation tools can support decision-making and should complement the workforce.

Deep-rooted concerns with the information and communications technology (ICT) supply chain, especially after the SolarWinds software supply chain breach, left government agencies and contractors vulnerable to foreign nation-state infiltration.

Biden’s $1.9 trillion stimulus package includes $10 billion for IT modernization and cybersecurity needs at federal agencies.

Amid growing cybersecurity concerns, it will take more than legislation to prevent risks in the supply chain.

As federal agencies prepare their infrastructure for anticipated 5G capabilities, these modernization efforts elicit the need for enhanced security. The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is uniquely positioned to address these needs.

Federal agencies are exploring new technologies like artificial intelligence, blockchain, 5G and "internet of things" to improve IT mission delivery. But with emerging tech comes new security risks.

One common refrain for securing information and communication technology (ICT) supply chains is to focus on acquisition and supplier visibility. According to top IT leaders at a FCW workshop this week, federal entities seeking to secure their ICT supply chains have a knowledge problem.
