Dear Industry Partners,

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is hosting an Industry Day event for the Cyber Safety Review Board (CSRB) requirement virtually via Microsoft Teams on Tuesday, September 20, 2022, from 10:00AM to 12:00PM EST.

The CSRB was established pursuant to President Biden’s Executive Order (EO) 14028 on ‘Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity. The Board serves a deliberate function to review major cyber events and make concrete recommendations that would drive improvements within the private and public sectors. The Board’s construction is a unique and valuable collaboration of government and private sector members and provides a direct path to the Secretary of Homeland Security and the President to ensure the recommendations are addressed and implemented, as appropriate. As a uniquely constituted advisory body, the Board will focus on learning lessons and sharing them with those that need them to enable advances in national cybersecurity. 

CISA partners with industry and government to understand and manage risk to our Nation's critical infrastructure.  This contract primarily supports the Stakeholder Engagement Division of CISA and its work in support of the administration of the CSRB. The goal of the Industry Day event is to solicit Industry Partner input and feedback to better define its requirements and needs to support the CSRB. There will be an opportunity for questions and answers, which will be posted after the event.

CISA intends to post the draft Performance Work Statement (PWS) with an accompanying Sources Sought Notice no later than Tuesday, September 13, 2022. The required response date will be included in the follow-on attachment.

Please submit any questions to the point of contacts listed in this announcement no later than September 27, 2022.
