Needed Now: Cybersecurity for Offshore Oil and Gas

Описание: A network of more than 1,600 offshore oil and gas facilities produce a significant amount of domestic oil and gas. To promote safety and protect the environment, the Department of Interior regulates offshore oil and gas infrastructure. This includes drill ships, production facilities, pipelines, and related equipment.
GAO is recommending that the Department of Interior immediately develop and implement a strategy to address offshore infrastructure risks. Such a strategy should include an assessment and mitigation of risks; and identify objectives, roles, responsibilities, resources, and performance measures, among other things.
