A revised government-industry council devoted to critical infrastructure protection could be set up to have broader and more specific discussions on things like cybersecurity and threats to hardware and software that monitor and control industrial processes, known as operational technology (OT).<\/p>\n

A top official at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), Nick Andersen, said Tuesday he couldn\u2019t share a timeline yet for the replacement of the Critical Infrastructure Partnership Advisory Council, which the Homeland Security Department disbanded to private sector dismay last year.<\/p>\n

\u201cAdditionally, it didn\u2019t give us the opportunities for having focus groups to have conversations [about] like undersea cables, might be a good example. OT systems might be a good example,\u201d he said. \u201cOT had to nest itself under the IT Sector Coordinating Council in the past. There\u2019s real opportunities for us to improve, opportunities for elements of the community that didn\u2019t necessarily have opportunities to engage in a substantive way in the past, to give them a voice in the process.\u201d<\/p>\n

Further considerations, sources have told CyberScoop, include things like liability protections and how transparent the panel\u2019s proceedings should be.<\/p>\n

It was one of a number of topics discussed at the ITI event on the intersection of government, industry and cybersecurity.<\/p>\n

Andersen told reporters he couldn\u2019t provide a timeline for development of an artificial intelligence information…<\/p>\n
