On April 4, 2023, Radhika Bhat, Loretta Polk, and Andy Scott of NCTA –
The Internet & Television Association, Maureen O’Connell of Charter,
Brian Josef and Catherine Fox of Comcast, and Nneka Adibe of Cox spoke
with Debra Jordan, Nicole McGinnis, Austin Randazzo, Erika Olsen,
James Wiley, Steven Carpenter, Minsoo Kim, and James Zigouris of the
Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau regarding the above
referenced proceeding.1 Mses. Bhat, Polk, O’Connell, Fox, and Adibe
and Mr. Josef also met on April 4th with Hannah Lepow, Legal Advisor
to Commissioner Starks; on April 5th with Marco Peraza, Legal Advisor
to Commissioner Simington; and on April 6 th with Umair Javed, Chief
Counsel to Chairwoman Rosenworcel.

NCTA explained that network security is a core business imperative for
cable operators and that our members develop and implement
leading-edge cybersecurity best practices, tools, and risk management
plans in the normal course of business, including with respect to
EAS.2 Accordingly, a requirement for EAS Participants to develop
EAS-specific cyber risk management plans is unlikely to result in
additional security improvements for NCTA’s members. Should the
Commission have concerns about other EAS Participants, education
efforts regarding basic cybersecurity hygiene would help these
entities gain the knowledge and tools necessary to implement
cybersecurity measures.
