The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency on Thursday published guidance meant to provide federal agencies with security considerations regarding Trusted Internet Connections 3.0 implementations as they transition to IPv6.
The guidance follows a years-long effort spanning multiple administrations to securely transition agencies to IPv6—the current standard for identifying devices and systems communicating over the web—from the previous standard, IPv4. The guidance reflects feedback provided during a public comment period adjudicated by CISA, in partnership with the General Services Administration, Federal Chief Information Security Officers Council TIC subcommittee and the Office of Management and Budget.
