On April 4, 2022, the State Department formed a new bureau — the Bureau of Cybersecurity and Digital Policy (CDP). The establishment of the new bureau came as no surprise since the White House released a statement on March 21, 2022, urging the federal government’s private sector partners to:
“…harden your cyber defenses immediately by implementing best practices we have developed together over the past year.”
The Biden administration also released a fact sheet the same day titled, “Act Now to Protect Against Potential Cyberattacks.”
