CESER facilitates incident coordination across government and with the private sector to enhance response and recovery efforts and coordinates federal capabilities to mitigate the impact of energy disruptions. Formal incident coordination processes and procedures, including the deployment of cyber-assistance capabilities, are aligned with the National Incident Management System (NIMS) and National Response Framework (NRF) in place and are updated. In the event of a cyber incident, DOE will exercise its emergency authority for cyber incidents based on these clearly-defined processes and procedures. Ongoing activities include training, exercises, and information sharing.
