TSA UPDATES PIPELINE CYBERSECURITY REQUIREMENTS

The updates will require pipeline owners and operators to do more than just plan
for potential cyberattacks; now, those plans will need to be tested.

A year after the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) updated
requirements for pipeline owners and operators to improve their defenses against
cyberattacks in the wake of the Colonial Pipeline debacle, it has released an
updated version with additional cybersecurity requirements to be fulfilled. 



Owners and operators will now be required to "enhance cyber resilience through
implementation of a TSA-approved Cybersecurity Implementation Plan (CIP)," along
with testing of at least two objectives in the proposed plans.

TSA administrator David Pekoske said that while earlier versions of the policy
required these processes and plans to be developed, owners and operators are now
required to actually test the plans and evaluate them. The plans, a schedule for
assessing and auditing those cyber measures, and a report of the previous year's
assessment will all be required to be submitted annually. 

All of the existing requirements, such as reporting significant cyber-related
incidents to CISA, designating a point of contact, and conducting a
vulnerability assessment, will also remain in place.



These changes continue to roll in years after the Colonial Pipeline hack, which
exposed severe cyber vulnerabilities in critical infrastructure that threat
actors are all too willing to take advantage of. 



"This revision retains the transition to a more flexible, performance-based
approach requiring all Owner/Operators to submit a Cybersecurity Implementation
Plan for TSA approval. All currently identified critical Owner/Operators have
a TSA-approved Cybersecurity Implementation Plan in place," stated the US
Department of Homeland Security memorandum.
