Project 5: Administration Cybersecurity Policy Review
Step 5: Complete the Recent Administration Cybersecurity Policy eLearning Module

So far in this project, you have completed the developing cybersecurity law and policy eLearning module and the Federal Cybersecurity Agency SIMTRAY to familiarize yourself with how cybersecurity laws and policies are developed. However, you should also understand how prior administrations have affected current policy.

In this step, you will complete the Recent Administration Cybersecurity Policy eLearning module to better understand how the prior administration handled cybersecurity policy. You will cover the key points of the Cyberspace Policy Review and the US Government Accountability Office (GAO) report, which is a follow-up to the review. You will also cover the role of the cyber czar, and how the Cyberspace Policy Review findings eventually led to the new cyber command, USCYBERCOM.

Take notes on the key concepts that will help you in your analysis of the current and previous administration’s cybersecurity policies.
