SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 2011, the Department of Commerce 
published a Green Paper, Cybersecurity, Innovation, and the Internet 
Economy, identifying the challenges of securing the digital ecosystem, 
and the importance of a multistakeholder policy model.\1\ Building off 
this approach, in March of 2015, the IPTF announced a new initiative to 
complement existing cybersecurity programs by focusing on risks that 
exist between multiple parts of the digital ecosystem.\2\ Please see 
the prior Notice, Stakeholder Engagement on Cybersecurity in the 
Digital Ecosystem, for the original questions posed in the request for 
public comments to identify substantive cybersecurity issues to be 
addressed by a multistakeholder process.\3\ The request for public 
comments originally set a deadline for submission of comments on May 
18, 2015. With this notice, NTIA announces that the closing deadline 
for submission of comments has been extended until 5:00 p.m. EDT on May 
27, 2015.
