Answers to Common Questions Regarding New CIRCIA
On March 15, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Cyber Incident Reporting for Critical Infrastructure Act of 2022. This follows increased reporting of cyber threats facing critical infrastructure sectors, particularly the energy sector.

Given the heightened threat environment and forthcoming reporting requirements, companies may want to understand the new rules and evaluate their cybersecurity posture.
