BSA | The Software Alliance signs letter with other industry groups to encourage the Administration to nominate a National Cybersecurity Director candidate. “
“We are concerned that the delay in nominating a candidate for the National Cyber Director role could impede the great work accomplished under Director Inglis and Acting Director Walden, hinder the implementation of the National Cyber Strategy, and jeopardize the effectiveness of the ONCD,” said a coalition of industry and advocacy groups, and nonprofit cyber organizations, in a letter to Biden’s chief of staff, Jeff Zients, this week. The signatories include the Cybersecurity Coalition, BSA/The Software Alliance, Information Technology Industry Council and Center for Cybersecurity Policy and Law.
