"Implementation steps for the Trump administration's forthcoming cyber strategy, set for release in January, will include reexamining policies like NSPM-13, a classified document that governs what agencies can launch cyber operations and how they are authorized; PPD-41, which governs what happens when a major cyber incident hits U.S. soil, including lead agencies and coordination structures; and NSM-22, which sets standards for protecting critical infrastructure across various sectors."
"Details of the cyber strategy itself were also laid out in part in an industry document obtained by Nextgov/FCW. The six-pillar strategy would focus on taking steps to preempt foreign adversaries' hacking capabilities, reform cybersecurity regulations to reduce compliance burdens, modernize federal networks, secure critical infrastructure, encourage superiority in emerging technologies and build a business-driven cyber talent pipeline. CyberScoop first reported on those pillars."
Implementation steps include reexamining NSPM-13 to revise authorities for launching cyber operations, PPD-41 to update incident response leadership and coordination, and NSM-22 to strengthen critical infrastructure protections. Executive orders will target cybercrime and ransomware groups. The strategy centers on six pillars: preempting foreign hacking capabilities, reforming cybersecurity regulations to reduce compliance burdens, modernizing federal networks, securing critical infrastructure, advancing superiority in emerging technologies, and building a business-driven cyber talent pipeline. The effort accompanies reductions across major cyberdefense and intelligence offices and involves evolving plans that may change as implementation details are finalized.
