JAKARTA - US President Donald Trump on Friday (12/6) signed a presidential memorandum establishing new cybersecurity guidelines for the national security system (NSS) that handles classified state information.
The official order, sent to senior officials across the administration, "establishes a clear structure, authority, roles, and responsibilities for NSS governance and accountability to NSS cybersecurity requirements for its owners and operators," the White House said in a statement.
The policy restructures the National Security System Committee and seeks to modernize it for the first time in more than three decades.
In addition, the committee was also tasked with establishing "basic cybersecurity requirements for all NSS as well as improving accountability and inter-agency coordination to implement the necessary cybersecurity defense across all NSS."
The committee, which will oversee the national security system across the federal government, will issue binding security directives to operators, and promote coordination and information sharing between agencies.
The director of the National Security Agency will serve as the committee's head and will be able to "leverage the agency's full technical strength to provide advanced defenses and assistance to strengthen NSS security across the US government," the White House said.
