The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Cybersecurity and Critical Infrastructure Protection (OCCIP) announced a new initiative aimed at strengthening cybersecurity across the digital asset industry by providing eligible U.S. digital asset firms and industry organizations with timely, actionable cybersecurity information. The programme will extend, at no cost, the same cybersecurity information Treasury routinely shares with traditional U.S. financial institutions, to help recipients identify, prevent, and respond to cyber threats targeting customers and networks. Treasury positioned the initiative as advancing a recommendation from the President’s Working Group on Digital Asset Markets report, Strengthening American Leadership in Digital Financial Technology, and as supporting the GENIUS Act principles focused on cybersecurity and operational resilience. Treasury invited interested firms and industry organizations to contact OCCIP for further information and to assess eligibility against Treasury’s criteria.
