Summary
The White House has asked federal agencies to seek increased funding to enhance the nation’s cybersecurity, aligning budget requests with the Biden administration's national cyber strategy and zero-trust architecture goals. A memo from the Office of Management and Budget and the National Cyber Director mandates that agencies update their zero-trust implementation plans and prioritize investments in enterprise-wide cybersecurity solutions. Additionally, agencies must align their budgets with the critical infrastructure national security memorandum, develop minimum cybersecurity requirements, and improve open-source software security. The administration also stresses addressing the government's cyber workforce challenges, advocating for skills-based hiring and removing unnecessary educational barriers.
