First came the launch of its National Risk Management Center last month. Now the Homeland Security Department is renewing its pitch to Congress. It wants approval to reorganize and streamline its cybersecurity functions. The plan has broad support on the Hill and from the Trump administration. But this is Washington, and the plan to reshuffle the DHS cyber office has stalled for more than a year. Federal News Radio's Jory Heckman had more on Federal Drive with Tom Temin.

Join the interview in progress featuring Tom Millar. Tom has been an active FIRST community member for years and is no stranger to the annual conference. This year, Tom will present on the following topics, “TLP to IEP Evolution: What, Why & How,” on 28 June and “Professionalizing the Field of Cybersecurity Incident Response,” on 29 June.

The National Protection and Program Directorate, one of four Homeland Security Department directorates, said its federal partners know that NPPD is in charge when it comes to cybersecurity. The agency said it has all the authorities it needs to help protect federal networks and work with the private sector to mitigate cyber threats to critical infrastructure. But it just needs one other thing from Congress. Federal News Radio's Nicole Ogrysko had more on Federal Drive with Tom Temin.
