What GAO Found
In June 2025, GAO identified three priority recommendations for the Office of the National Cyber Director (ONCD). These three recommendations involve the following area:
Implementing these priority recommendations could help ONCD more effectively carry out its leadership responsibilities needed to ensure the cybersecurity of the nation.
Why GAO Did This Study
Priority recommendations are the GAO recommendations that have not been implemented and warrant attention from heads of key departments or agencies because their implementation could save large amounts of money; improve congressional or executive branch decision-making on major issues; eliminate mismanagement, fraud, and abuse; or ensure that programs comply with laws and funds are legally spent, among other benefits. Since 2015, GAO has sent letters to selected agencies to highlight the importance of implementing such recommendations.
