DHS and CISA want to lead the federal register and private industry by example.

DHS is working to secure supply chains and leverage new standardization to protect IT networks.

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.

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.

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.

The COVID-19 pandemic exposed vulnerabilities in information and communication technology (ICT) supply chains once considered industry best practices.

Following major cyber incidents, cybersecurity experts push for CISA support and a National Cyber Director.

As government agencies go digital, increased cyber risks require a holistic approach.

Deterrence, speed and a collective approach to defense are the core concepts of the new strategy.

While the attack was reportedly unsuccessful, federal cybersecurity leads encourage agencies to 'remain vigilant'.
