Because the nation's critical infrastructure relies on info. tech. systems and data, the security of those assets is critical to ensuring national security and public safety. In 2003, the Pres. directed federal agencies to: (1) develop plans for the protection of their computer-related critical infrastructure assets; and (2) submit them for approval to the Office of Mgmt. and Budget (OMB) by 7/31/04.
