Federal Government Cybersecurity Progress: Obama Administration Report Card 2009 – Present

National Security Cyberspace Institute – Federal Government Cybersecurity Progress: Obama Administration Report Card 2009-Present

  • What follows is an “Obama Administration Report Card,” whereby we have awarded grades for progress against a number of the recommendations contained in the 60-Day Review, or “Hathaway Report” as it is commonly called. The Hathaway Report contained recommendations broken down into two categories of action plans, designated as Near-Term and Mid-Term, with neither plan being defined in terms of timing or projected dates of completion – perhaps its most glaring shortfall. Now that the administration is over halfway through their elected term, we believe enough time has passed to make it entirely reasonable to expect complete or near-complete implementation of action items described as “near term.” We’ve therefore evaluated the administration’s progress against the ten recommendations contained in the Near-Term Action Plan while withholding judgment for now on the additional 14 recommendations in the Mid-Term Action Plan.”
