Urgent calls from the Biden administration to strengthen cyber defenses amid the Ukraine crisis and overall heightened threat environment underscore the growing concern over the impact a cyber incident would have on U.S. networks and critical infrastructure.
This year’s $1.5 trillion omnibus spending package includes an unprecedented budget increase for the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, as well as tightened cyber incident reporting requirements for sectors like transportation and energy.
To build cyber resilience in this heightened threat environment, agencies must work closely with both international counterparts and industry to align on a proactive, global approach to all cyber threats –– not just state-sponsored attacks. That means understanding the threat landscape, shoring up critical infrastructure and developing a plan to coordinate well before attacks happen.
