Cybersecurity policy seeks to provide guidance for the protection of critical data, IT assets, and infrastructures in higher education at the national level. 

On March 2nd, 2023, the White House issued an updated US National Cybersecurity Strategy document, building on a series of earlier initiatives and policies. The two areas of focus include;

  1. Rebalance the responsibility to defend cyberspace by shifting the burden for cybersecurity away from individuals, small businesses, and local governments, and onto the organizations that are most capable and best-positioned to reduce risks for all of us.
  2. The US must realign incentives to favor long-term investments by striking a careful balance between defending ourselves against urgent threats today and simultaneously strategically planning for and investing in a resilient future.
