AI Summary: This regulation is an Executive Order that amends two previous cybersecurity-related executive orders (14144 and 13694) to strengthen the United States' cybersecurity efforts. The key provisions include establishing new requirements for federal agencies and industry to improve cybersecurity practices, such as developing guidance for secure software development, updating cybersecurity frameworks, preparing for quantum computing threats, and promoting security in artificial intelligence. Specific actions include creating a consortium to develop software development guidance, updating security control publications, preparing for post-quantum cryptography, making cyber defense research datasets more accessible, and incorporating AI software vulnerability management into existing processes. The order emphasizes addressing cyber threats from countries like China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea, and calls for agencies to align their investments and priorities to reduce cyber risks. The regulation sets various deadlines for different agencies to implement these actions, with most requiring completion by late 2025 and early 2026.
