The Cyber Rule Everyone Forgot About Just Came Back

Remember CIRCIA? The proposed rule would create mandatory cyber incident reporting requirements for more than 300,000 organizations across 16 critical infrastructure sectors, including the Defense Industrial Base. Now CISA is holding a new round of town halls to gather feedback before issuing a final rule. In this episode, we explain why CIRCIA isn't just another version of DFARS 252.204-7012, the seven biggest differences defense contractors need to understand, and why the upcoming town halls may be the DIB's best opportunity to influence the final rule. Registration links for the CIRCIA Town Halls are included below.
