WASHINGTON, April 30 (Reuters) - President Joe Biden on Tuesday signed a new national security memorandum to boost the resilience of U.S. critical infrastructure, replacing a decade-old policy.
The White House said it was launching a "comprehensive effort to protect U.S. infrastructure against all threats and hazards, current and future."
The directive empowers the Homeland Security Department to lead the government-wide effort to secure U.S. critical infrastructure and to submit regular National Risk Management plans summarizing U.S. government efforts.
