A plan to reorganize the Department of Homeland Security’s National Protections and Programs Directorate, currently under review on Capitol Hill, would recast the organization into a form that better employs its capabilities, from cyber to physical protections, according to Andy Ozment, DHS’ assistant secretary for Cybersecurity and Communications.
In remarks to the Information Security and Privacy Advisory Board on March 24, Ozment said the plan would rename NPPD to Cyber Infrastructure Protection and cut across current stovepipes of the National Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center, the Office of Infrastructure Security and Federal Protective Services.
