Homeland Security Presidential Directive 20 (HSPD-20)

Homeland Security Presidential Directive 20 (HSPD-20) established a framework for protecting the U.S. government’s classified cyber threat intelligence and security information. It designates the National Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center (NCCIC) as the primary authority for sharing and coordinating cyber threat information across federal agencies, ensuring timely and secure communication to prevent and respond to cyber threats. Essentially, HSPD-20 aims to improve national cybersecurity by creating a structured approach to information sharing and collaboration among government agencies and partners.
