The U.S. Department of State announced Monday the formation of its first Bureau of Cyberspace and Digital Policy, an office emphasizing the digital modernization in the federal sphere that is a key mission within the Biden administration.
Some of the areas of focus include national security, economic developments and digital technologies, all within a policy lense.
“The Bureau of Cyberspace and Digital Policy leads and coordinates the Department’s work on cyberspace and digital diplomacy to encourage responsible state behavior in cyberspace and advance policies that protect the integrity and security of the infrastructure of the internet, serve U.S. interests, promote competitiveness and uphold democratic values,” the office’s website reads.
