According to a DHS cybersecurity official with direct knowledge of the developing policy, the department is looking to increase the use of proactive memorandums of agreement with Section 9 entities in advance of a specific incident.
Voluntary agreements would pre-clear the department to provide incident response services, monitor networks when threat indicators pop up, block malicious traffic and deploy resources to assist those entities in the event of a cyberattack. The official requested anonymity in order to speak candidly.
