SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: US-CERT is responsible for performing, 
coordinating, and supporting response to information security 
incidents, which may originate outside the Federal community and affect 
users within it, or originate within the Federal community and affect 
users outside of it. Often, therefore, the effective handling of 
security incidents relies on information sharing among individual 
users, industry, and the Federal Government, which may be facilitated 
by and through US-CERT.
    US-CERT fulfills the role of the Federal information security 
incident center for the United States Federal Government as defined in 
the Federal Information Security Modernization Act of 2014. Each 
Federal agency is required to notify and consult with US-CERT regarding 
information security incidents involving the information and 
information systems (managed by a Federal agency, contractor, or other 
source) that support the operations and assets of the agency. 
Additional entities report incident information to US-CERT voluntarily.
    Per the Federal Information Security Modernization Act of 2014, as 
codified in subchapter II of chapter 35 of title 44 of the United 
States Code, US-CERT must inform operators of agency information 
systems about current and potential information security threats and 
vulnerabilities. Per the Homeland Security Act, as amended, the NCCIC, 
of which US-CERT and ICS-CERT are a part, is required to be the Federal 
civilian interface for sharing cybersecurity risks, incidents, 
analysis, and warnings for federal and non-Federal entities.
    OMB is particularly interested in comments that:

    1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
    2. Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden 
of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of 
the methodology and assumptions used;
    3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information 
to be collected; and
    4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those 
who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate 
automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., 
permitting electronic submissions of responses.
