The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) provides a strategic opportunity to upgrade the nation’s energy infrastructure for a clean, resilient, secure energy future. America’s safety and well-being depends on cybersecurity. It is critical that we ensure cybersecurity is embedded in BIL-funded systems and technologies to minimize potential disruptions to our energy supply chain, infrastructure, and economy. To that end, development of a cybersecurity plan, outlining important details such as goals, activities, & milestones, is required for all BIL-funded projects to ensure that the project cybersecurity runs smoothly.
