On October 1, 2021, President Biden issued a statement on Cybersecurity Awareness Month. He referenced the May 12 EO 14028 on Improving the Nation's Cybersecurity and said, "Both the public and private sectors have a role to play in strengthening cybersecurity, which is why we also issued a National Security Memorandum outlining the cybersecurity practices that responsible owners and operators of critical infrastructure should put in place and brought together leading American executives to expand public-private cooperation on cybersecurity."  Deadlines in implementing the EO are being met and companies doing business with the federal government will need to be aware of new regulations and standards in order to comply.
