PCAST RELEASES REPORT ON STRATEGY FOR CYBER-PHYSICAL RESILIENCE

 4. Press Releases

Today, the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST)
released a report on fortifying the nation’s cyber-physical systems. These
systems are the integrated digital and infrastructural resources that are
crucial to Americans’ daily lives, including the electrical grid, public water
systems, internet and telecommunications, banking systems, air traffic control,
and much more.

President Biden has taken historic action to strengthen our nation’s
cybersecurity to create a more equitable, safe, and resilient landscape in which
every American can thrive and prosper. His leadership has spurred a
whole-of-government approach to strengthen the nation’s cyber-physical
infrastructure and protect these vital societal resources from targeted attacks,
natural disasters, and human error. The Biden-Harris Administration has advanced
bold actions with a national cybersecurity strategy through the Office of the
National Cyber Director, and critical efforts by the Department of Homeland
Security Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, the National Security
Agency, and the National Security Council. These efforts are driving innovative
solutions and stimulating more public-private partnerships.

Challenges remain, however, and more urgent action on cyber-physical resilience
is still needed. Recommendations in this report include leveraging the
Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security
Agency (CISA), and coordinating with other federal and private stakeholders.

PCAST’s recommendations include:

 * Establishing measures of resilience and setting performance goals that set
   minimum delivery objectivesfor critical services that are integral to daily
   life, even in the face of adversity from natural hazards, errors, or attacks.
    

 * Bolstering and coordinating research and development to better understand the
   weaknesses of existing infrastructure and steps forward to introduce deep
   resiliency, including creating a national critical infrastructure observatory
   to map our infrastructure so that we can outmatch adversaries in discovering
   and addressing vulnerabilities and concentration risk.

 * Breaking down silos and strengthening government cyber-physical resilience
   capacity to support the resilience goals of the nation’s critical
   infrastructure sectors, ensuring that they can reliably deliver the services
   that Americans need.

 * Developing greater industry, board, CEO, and executive accountability to
   ensure that infrastructure is reliable and resilient.

These recommendations aim to augment actions of the Biden-Harris Administration
to reinforce security of the vital cyber-physical infrastructural resources
utilized by all Americans.
