SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NSTAC

problems related to implementing 

national security and emergency 

preparedness telecommunications 

policy. Notice of this meeting is given 

under the Federal Advisory Committee 

Act (FACA), Public Law 92–463 (1972), 

as amended appearing in 5 U.S.C. App. 

2. At the upcoming meeting, between 12 

p.m. and 12:35 p.m., the NSTAC 

Principals will receive government 

stakeholder comments, hold a 

discussion and vote on the Satellite 

Task Force Report, and discuss the 

January–May portion of the NSTAC 

Work Plan. This portion of the meeting 

will be open to the public. Between 

12:35 p.m. and 1 p.m., the Principals 

will receive an update on the work of 

the Cybersecurity Collaboration Task 

Force. 

Persons with disabilities who require 

special assistance should indicate this 

when arranging access to the 

teleconference and are encouraged to 

identify anticipated special needs as 

early as possible. 

Basis For Closure: During the portion 

of the meeting to be held from 12:35 

p.m. to 1 p.m., the NSTAC will discuss 

cybersecurity collaboration between the 

private sector and the Federal 

Government. Such discussions will 

likely include identification of network 

vulnerabilities and strategies for 

mitigating those vulnerabilities. NSTAC 

members will likely inform the 

discussion by contributing confidential 

and voluntarily-provided commercial 

information relating to private sector 

cybersecurity vulnerabilities that they 

would not customarily release to the 

public. Disclosure of this information 

can be reasonably expected to frustrate 

DHS’s ongoing cyber security programs 

and initiatives, especially the National 

Cyber Incident Response Plan, and 

could be used to exploit vulnerabilities 

in the Federal Government’s cyber 

network. Accordingly, the relevant 

portion of this meeting will be closed to 

the public pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 

552b(c)(2), (4) and (9)(B).
