There are numerous challenges that would make it challenging to control cybercrimes at the national level; these would include the different types of systems that are used across other companies and military organizations. Effective collaboration between the government and over key stakeholders would promote a unified cyber policy directive to facilitate comprehensive national solutions to evolving cyber threats. This literature discusses the solutions that should be implemented to solve the evolving cyber threats in the United States.
There is a need for centralizing the management and control of both federal and civilian cybersecurity. The administrators should enable federal agencies such as the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to protect and secure the networks and computer systems for federal organizations and other major companies. Ensuring that the DHS and has access to information systems for these organizations would help take and direct practical actions the systems against possible risks (The White House, 2018). In this case, the DHS would have critical visibility into the infrastructures and services required to improve the United States’ cybersecurity capacity. The centralized efforts would be ideal in promoting the deployment of centralized tools and policies, and it would be easy to determine the compliance of the set laws and directives.
Integrating supply chain risk management is different federal and private agencies would help in mitigating cybercrime risks that are likely to be experienced in procurement processes. Such initiatives would help in ensuring that the technology employed in organizations and companies is secure and ...
