Governments should work closely with the private sector when designing and detailing their national cybersecurity strategies, a prominent think tank said in a report published on Monday.
\n\u201cActive participation from the private sector, particularly large technology, telecommunications, and cybersecurity firms, is critical throughout the strategy\u2019s development,\u201d the Center for Cybersecurity Policy and Law (CCPL) said in its white paper. \u201cThe private sector can help not only support but also deliver on the government\u2019s cybersecurity objectives and is key to a secure and resilient nation.\u201d<\/p>\n

CCPL\u2019s report comes as President Donald Trump\u2019s administration finalizes its own national cybersecurity strategy, which it is expected to roll out this month. The five-page document is expected to address digital deterrence, regulatory harmonization, workforce growth, procurement reforms, emerging technologies and critical infrastructure protection. The White House will follow up the strategy with an implementation plan.
\nIt is unclear how extensively the Trump administration collaborated with the business community in drafting the strategy. But CCPL\u2019s white paper identifies several reasons why close coordination could make the difference between success and failure in implementing the administration\u2019s plan.
\nNot only does \u201cbroad, inclusive engagement\u201d ensure that the strategy \u201caddresses sector-specific concerns,\u201d the report said, but \u201cinvolving private sector actors, civil society organizations, and key government entities early in the process also helps foster trust-based partnerships for ongoing collaboration.\u201d
\nCCPL compared nine countries\u2019 cybersecurity strategies and identified common themes in their priorities. Public-private partnerships and centralized coordination were two of the most consistent features, the report said.
\nCISA worries
\nTrust could prove to be a stumbling block for the forthcoming U.S. strategy, which is expected to rely heavily on the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) despite the Trump administration hollowing out the agency and weakening its bonds with state, local, industry and international partners. It is unclear how much input the White House sought on the strategy from CISA or the other agencies that help protect various critical infrastructure sectors from digital and physical threats.<\/p>\n

CISA\u2019s level of involvement and resources could determine the fate of Trump\u2019s cybersecurity strategy. The CCPL report argued that an effective strategy relies on \u201cthe designation of an overall lead authority with a clear mandate and authority\u201d to spearhead efforts. \u201cA centralized body \u2026 can serve as the focal point for coordination, guidance, and information sharing,\u201d the report said. \u201cGiven the number of institutions with roles in cybersecurity, strong coordination mechanisms are essential to avoid fragmentation and turf issues.\u201d
\nCongress designed CISA to play that coordinating role in the U.S. But under the Trump administration, workforce cuts and program turmoil have hobbled its ability to do so, cybersecurity experts and U.S. officials have told Cybersecurity Dive.
\nThe new report also highlights the importance of dedicating funding to new cybersecurity projects, something it is unclear whether the Trump administration will do. \u201cWithout adequate investment and attention,\u201d CCPL said, \u201cthe actions envisioned in the strategy\u2019s policy pillars will remain unfulfilled, and its goals will not be achieved.\u201d
\nPolicy recommendations
\nIn address to process, the report also covers substance, diving into several topics that a cybersecurity strategy should address. Among those \u201cfoundational principles,\u201d according to CCPL, are education and workforce development, product security and cyber hygiene, artificial intelligence governance, quantum computing preparedness and critical infrastructure resilience.
\nStrategies should also incentivize companies to report cyber incidents, streamline regulations to reduce the burdens on businesses and \u201clead by example\u201d through flexible, risk-based security standards for government computer networks.<\/p>\n
