Specific items called out from the Executive Order include but not limited to: Modernize cybersecurity defenses by protecting federal networks, improving information-sharing between the U.S. government and the private sector on cyber issues, and strengthening the United States’ ability to respond to incidents when they occur.
Modernize and Implement Stronger Cybersecurity Standards in the Federal Government.
Improve Detection of Cybersecurity Incidents on Federal Government Networks, thus improving the ability to detect malicious cyber activity on federal networks by enabling a government-wide endpoint detection and response system and improved information sharing within the Federal government.
Improve Investigative and Remediation Capabilities by creating cybersecurity event log requirements for federal departments and agencies. The OCIO seeks private sector recommendations on how to leverage industry best practices in the FBI’s environments to ensure compliance.
