Key strategies & tech to improve the nation’s cybersecurity

The Biden Administration’s Executive Order (EO) on Improving the Nation's Cybersecurity emphasizes cybersecurity as a national priority; outlining concrete actions to strengthen security and address ever-evolving threats across federal agencies and the entire digital ecosystem.

While agencies have made strides in driving modernization and strengthening cybersecurity capabilities – the EO aims to accelerate these efforts and presents some aggressive timelines for agencies to meet.
