The White House Released New Cybersecurity Strategy

The National cybersecurity strategy comes about after major hacking incidents have posed threats to important public services in the first year of the Biden administration.

On Wednesday, the White House released a strategy that calls for new federal regulation.

The National cybersecurity strategy comes about after major hacking incidents have posed threats to important public services in the first year of the Biden administration.

It is a plan that embraces the U.S. government’s regulatory and purchasing power to force companies that are significant to economic and National security, to raise their cyber protection.

The new strategy is not a legislation but a policy document that could shape corporate behavior moving forward as firms compete for billions of dollars in federal contracts that require a minimum set of cybersecurity defenses.

The White House announced it wants to work with congress to develop a law that holds software makers liable if their products and services do not provide proper protections from sabotage.
