Summary
On August 29, 2024, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) launched a new cyber-incident Reporting Portal within its CISA Services Portal to simplify the reporting process for cyber incidents. The portal enables users to create accounts, save their reports, and reduce repetitive data entry. CISA underscores the importance of reporting incidents for both individual organizations and the broader community, which aids in response and recovery efforts. As a new presidential administration is expected to take office in January 2025, there may be changes in CISA’s leadership and structure. Despite these uncertainties, CISA plans to continue enhancing the portal's functionality while encouraging compliance with the Cyber Incident Reporting for Critical Infrastructure Act of 2022, even though reporting remains voluntary for now.
