Joint Statement From Governor Kathy Hochul And Deputy National Security Advisor For Cyber And Emerging Technology Anne Neuberger Following Meeting At Joint Security Operations Center

"Today's meeting of local, state and federal partners is part of a new era of collaboration in protecting our critical infrastructure and citizens from cyber attacks."

"President Biden has made it a priority to bolster the nation's cybersecurity networks, improving information-sharing between the U.S. government and the private sector and strengthening the United States' ability to respond to incidents when they occur."

"New York is also leading the nation on efforts to harden cyber defenses and recently launched the first-of-its kind Joint Security Operations Center (JSOC) to serve as the nerve center for the State's cyber operations, where city, state and federal cyber experts will work alongside one another collecting intelligence on potential threats, keeping an eye out for intruders and breaches, and quickly responding to cybersecurity threats and incidents. This is a joint effort with Mayors Eric Adams, Kathy Sheehan, Ben Walsh, Byron Brown, Malik Evans, Mike Spano, and the State is also investing $30 million to support local government cyber efforts."

"Together, we commit to working collaboratively with our local and private sector counterparts to keep New York's critical infrastructure safe and secure. We hope this collaboration will serve as a model for others across the country."
