The Biden administration has created an advisory board to review major cybersecurity incidents in the hopes of minimizing the impact of future attacks.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security said Thursday that the Cyber Safety Review Board will include leaders from government and the private sector to examine past events, with the goal of meaningfully improving the nation’s ability to respond to major hacks. The board is modeled in part on the National Transportation Safety Board, which investigates airline crashes and other transportation accidents.
