🧵
The Cyberspace Solarium Commission helped lay the foundation for stronger U.S. cyber policy. Weak authorities and widening gaps threaten what we've built.
Priorities to secure the next phase of America's cyber defense by @jiwonma_92 & @MarkCMontgomery:fdd.org/analysis/2025/10/22/…
🧵
U.S. cyber strategy today echoes the CSC’s strategy of layered cyber deterrence: shape adversaries’ behavior, block their gains, and make attacks on democracy too costly to risk.

For the first time, implementation progress has reversed.
Implementation doesn’t guarantee durability. Key reforms remain vulnerable to bureaucratic gridlock that stalls U.S. cyber progress.

Many thanks to @craignewmark & others who make this possible.
5 years have passed since the release of our final report. Over 80% of our recs have been implemented. But securing U.S. cyberspace mandates continued dedication to the cause. Read below ⬇️ fdd.org/analysis/2025/03/13/…
We are thankful for the continued leadership, dedication, and expertise of co-chairs @SenAngusKing, @chairmang and all of the commissioners. CSC 2.0 owes a debt of gratitude to the Commission's original staff. Cybersecurity rock stars.

The National Cyber Director position at the @ONCD has remained vacant for over 3 months. President Biden must move swiftly to nominate the eminently qualified Acting NCD @KembaWalden46, who can seamlessly step into this position today. thecipherbrief.com/column_ar…
.@POTUS’s FY24 budget requests reflect many of the new National Cybersecurity Strategy priorities, but effort fall short, says @FDD_CCTI’s @MarkCMontgomery and @jiwonma_92 in @thehill [THREAD]

Great discussion by Rob Knake - implementation is key to the success of the strategy and the Office of the NCD will lead the WH/Administration effort. Looking forward to the first iteration of the plan in June.

Great work by Biden team, this is an important element of a strategy to protect our information communication and technologies sector, working with key partners to control/eliminate tech transfer. All of this laid out by CSC in our 2021 supply chain paper
