National Security Presidential Memorandum 12 (NSPM-12) introduces a new government-wide cybersecurity governance model for National Security Systems (NSS).

- What NSPM-12 is and why it matters
- How the initiative supports Zero Trust and cybersecurity modernization
- Key planning questions every agency should be asking
- Why a trusted data foundation is essential for future mission success
- Practical guidance for developing an NSPM-12 readiness strategy
