The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) will finalize regulations to implement certain aspects of the Cyber Incident Reporting for Critical Infrastructure Act of 2022 (CIRCIA).  Specifically, CIRCIA directs CISA to develop and implement regulations requiring covered entities to submit reports to CISA regarding covered cyber incidents and ransom payments.  CIRCIA requires CISA to publish a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) within 24 months of the date of enactment of CIRCIA as part of the process for developing these regulations.  CISA previously issued a Request for Information on September 12, 2022, and held a series of listening sessions seeking public input on potential aspects of the proposed regulation prior to publication of the NPRM. On April 4, 2024, CISA published the NPRM with a 60-day open comment period to solicit public feedback on the proposed regulations. On May 6, 2024, CISA extended the public comment period for an additional 30 days ending the comment period on July 3, 2024.
