Action: On June 6, the President issued an Executive Order amending two previous Orders issued in April 2015 and January 2025 related to US cybersecurity. The 2015 Order, as amended in 2016 and 2021, authorizes sanctions to be applied to any person engaged in malicious cyber-enabled activities, including “tampering with, altering, or causing a misappropriation of information with the purpose or effect of interfering with or undermining election processes or institutions.” The new Order removes election interference as a sanctionable activity and limits the scope of the Order to “any foreign person.”
The new Order also, among other changes, eliminates provisions in the January 2025 order seeking to encourage the acceptance of digital identity documents for accessing public benefits programs and removes a requirement that Federal software vendors submit proof that their products comply with the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) Secure Software Development Framework (SSDF).
