FEMA
wants feedback on the draft “Planning Considerations for Cyber Incidents:
Guidance for Emergency Managers.” This document provides
state, local, tribal and territorial emergency managers with
foundational knowledge of cyber incidents to increase cyber
preparedness efforts in their jurisdictions.
Key
aspects of cyber incident preparedness included in the document:
- Understanding the
types of cyber incidents likely to occur;
- Engaging service
owners and operators;
- Identifying cyber
dependent critical services and related dependencies;
- Prioritizing and
planning for service and system disruptions;
- Identifying roles
and responsibilities;
- Providing
integrated communication and public messaging; and
- Developing a cyber
incident response plan.
FEMA
will host four 60-minute webinars to give an overview of the draft
document and gather feedback from whole community partners. The
sessions will include facilitated discussions with stakeholders to
help improve the existing draft. FEMA seeks input -- especially
real-world case studies -- that can be incorporated into the guide.
The draft guide is available to allow individuals to provide
comments on specific areas within the document. This national
engagement period will conclude at close of business on Nov. 22,
2022.
