Unpacking the President’s Cybersecurity Executive Order

Page 46

Conclusion The past two years have witnessed a troubling rise in the frequency and severity of cyberattacks. No matter where these security incidents occur, even the smallest one jeopardizes national normalcy. The Biden administration’s cybersecurity EO suggests Americans are stronger together than apart when it comes to cybersecurity. Although cybersecurity is a constant concern, the EO equips the United States to weather this storm by bringing the public and private sectors closer together on topics such as threat intelligence.

Beginning with the federal government, the EO modernizes cybersecurity in ways that will strengthen state and local agencies, too. From there, this document unites the public, private and constituent sectors against global cyberthreats. Although nothing is certain with cybersecurity, the EO dramatically improves America’s cybersecurity odds.
