Cloud Safe Task Force: Delivering the National Cyber Feed
July 1, 2024, 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM ET
Event Overview
The Cloud Safe Task Force (CSTF) recommends establishing a National Cyber Feed (NCF) —
a public-private collaborative effort for comprehensive situational awareness of cyber threats
and responses, fed by real-time security information from major U.S. cloud service providers
(CSPs) and used by leading federal cybersecurity organizations including the Office of the
National Cyber Director (ONCD), Office of the Federal Chief Information Officer/ Office of
Management and Budget (OFCIO/OMB), Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency
(CISA), Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), and the United States Cyber Command (USCYBERCOM).
This meeting of the CSTF will address vital requirements for making the NCF a reality. Read our most recent paper outlining our recommendations.
This virtual event is open to anyone who wants to contribute their ideas or has an interest in learning
more about government cloud security.
