The intelligence community has also assessed that Chinese-sponsored hackers have <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/feds-chinese-hacking-operations-have-been-in-critical-infrastructure-networks-for-five-years\/\">been inside U.S. critical infrastructure networks<\/a> for years, and ransomware attacks on those systems are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.federalregister.gov\/documents\/2025\/01\/17\/2025-01243\/ratification-of-security-directives#footnote-3-p5491\">likely to increase<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In light of those issues and other lingering geopolitical threats such as the Russia-Ukraine war, TSA said in Friday\u2019s posting that updates and extensions to the pipeline directives were necessary. The amendments to the requirements in the directives are focused on strengthening their effectiveness and addressing emerging cyber threats, TSA said.<\/p>\n<p>The agency is also shifting the mandates in Security Directive Pipeline-2021-02 \u201cto be more performance-based and less prescriptive,\u201d the posting states. \u201cThe performance-based approach enhances security by mandating that critical security outcomes are achieved while allowing owner\/operators to choose the most appropriate security measures for their specific systems and operations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Going forward, pipeline owners\/operators will be required to create and institute a TSA-approved cybersecurity implementation plan and maintain a cybersecurity incident response plan. Another requirement involves the development of a cybersecurity assessment program and annual submissions that assess the effectiveness of cyber measures, among other provisions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Representatives of the rail and pipeline industry have criticized TSA\u2019s cyber directives as overly onerous. During a November 2024 House Homeland Security Subcommittee on Transportation and Maritime Security hearing, those representatives found <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/house-homeland-hearing-tsa-cyber-regulation\/\">plenty of sympathy from Republicans<\/a>, signaling what will likely be a willingness in the next administration to decrease industry-perceived regulatory burdens.<\/p>\n<p><\/body> <\/p>\n<footer class=\"single-article__footer\" readability=\"4.331550802139\">\n<div class=\"author-card\" readability=\"15\">\n<div class=\"author-card__avatar\">\n<figure class=\"author-card__image-wrap\"> <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"author-card__image\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ddi.mohflo.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/tsa-extends-cyber-requirements-for-pipeline-owners-1.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Matt Bracken\"> <\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><h4 class=\"author-card__name\">Written by Matt Bracken<\/h4>\n<p> Matt Bracken is the managing editor of FedScoop and CyberScoop, overseeing coverage of federal government technology policy and cybersecurity.
