White House Releases New National Security Memorandum on Critical Infrastructure

Today, the White House issued the National Security Memorandum (NSM) on Critical Infrastructure Security and Resilience. This much-anticipated memorandum replaces Presidential Policy Directive 21 (PPD-21), which was issued more than a decade ago to establish national policy on critical infrastructure security and resilience. The NSM will help ensure U.S. critical infrastructure can provide the nation a strong and innovative economy, protect American families, and enhance our collective resilience to disasters before they happen.
