In March, the Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) published update 1.01 to its Cross-Sector Cybersecurity Performance Goals (CPG). These cybersecurity performance goals are tailored to help small- and medium-sized businesses serving the industry across every public and private sector, identify and prioritize their most impactful cybersecurity practices.

In releasing the update, CISA Director Jen Easterly stated, “Ultimately, our hope is that the CPGs will not only serve as a strong foundation for improving cybersecurity across our nation’s critical infrastructure sectors, but also as a baseline of security outcomes that merit the trust of the American people.”
