Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) Background

On April 10, 2019, representatives from the federal Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) under the Department of Homeland Security made a presentation regarding the various services that agency provides.

• Those services include emergency telecommunications assistance, cybersecurity assistance and infrastructure security assistance.

• The services CISA provides are at no cost. Thus, as participating districts and companies approach the new requirements under the America’s Water Infrastructure Act of 2018, CISA’s services may be of great benefit to PWAG-ER agencies.
