Nextgov: White House cyber officials have identified 63 different policy directives, regulations or other requirements they plan to retire, the government’s chief information security officer said Wednesday.
Some of the directives slated for retirement date back to the 1990s, CISO Gregory Touhill told an audience at the FireEye Cyber Defense Summit.
“Frankly, I think it’s OK for us to say, ‘you know what, we don’t have to force the different departments and agencies to go through all these different Y2K orders that we gave back in the ‘90s,” Touhill said, referring to concerns about a major computer crash during the turn of the century.
