[...] The Office and Management and Budget (OMB) released a memo: "Moving the U.S. Government Towards Zero Trust Cybersecurity Principles". The memo is a reaction to 2020's SolarWinds incident and 2021's Colonial Pipeline rasomware attack, and advises the Federal Government on what steps each agency must take to improve its cybersecurity.
Many of the items in the memo go well-beyond even what the top enterprises and tech startups are doing today. It looks like the government is planning to position itself as a cybersecurity leader (rather than a laggard), while also pushing the private sector into a more robust cybersecurity posture.
Good recommendations all-around.
