The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency's upcoming town halls in June will provide a crucial platform for critical infrastructure operators to shape the definition of covered entities and reportable incidents under the Cyber Incident Reporting for Critical Infrastructure Act. This final opportunity for input will precede the issuance of long-awaited CIRCIA regulations, which will significantly impact compliance requirements for affected entities1. The town halls will enable operators to influence the agency's decisions on which entities must report cyber incidents and how they will be required to do so. The regulations will have far-reaching implications for critical infrastructure operators, and early assessment of the requirements will be essential for entities to maintain compliance. So what matters to practitioners is that these town halls will set the stage for the final regulatory framework, making it essential for operators to participate and ensure their concerns are addressed, ultimately affecting their compliance strategies.
