Cyber Strategy for America: Six Pillars for Federal Resilience
Today’s federal agencies face an environment where cyber incidents routinely halt missions, disrupt essential services, and undermine public trust. In response, the White House released their Cyber Strategy for America, with a six-pillar framework making it clear that preventing attacks is no longer enough. Resilience and rapid recovery must be equally central to federal cybersecurity strategy. Veeam is proud to have contributed to the collaborative effort that helped shape this strategy, working alongside government leaders and industry peers to bring a practical, forward-looking perspective to the table.
This white paper examines what each of those pillars means for federal IT leaders. Key insights include:
Why ransomware deterrence depends on recovery speed, not just defense
How to meet evolving incident reporting requirements with greater data visibility
What hybrid-environment modernization means for recovery planning across cloud, on-prem, and SaaS
Why AI resilience is the next frontier in federal data protection, including models, agents, and training data
How public-private partnerships and workforce investment accelerate operational readiness
