US President Barack Obama finally signed the much anticipated executive order that requires national organizations to share cyber threat evidence with private companies.
It was announced during President Barack Obama’s State of the Union address that the order requires the creation of a cybersecurity outline to reduce risks to companies providing critical base. Although the framework is not necessarily compulsory, the order entails federal agencies to oversee the critical infrastructure to recognize the operators that are at risk and explore whether the government can require those companies to embrace the said framework.
This specific order will strengthen the cyber defenses by generating more information sharing and mounting standards to protect the national securities, jobs and individual privacies, as stated by Obama himself during the State of the Union Address. Obama repeated his call for Congress to pass legislation to give the government greater volume to protect US-based networks and prevent attacks.
