Executive Order 14028 on Cybersecurity — May 12, 2021

Executive Order 14028 compelled U.S. federal agencies and suppliers to implement zero trust architectures, enhance logging, and adopt software supply-chain attestations. Zeph Tech still maps client action plans to the EO’s timelines.

• 12 May 2021 — Executive Order signed. The order mandated zero trust adoption, cloud security pilots, and contract updates.
• 17 May 2021 — Federal Register publication. The notice formalised the EO’s requirements and deadlines.
• 12 May 2021 — White House fact sheet. The fact sheet summarised software bill of materials expectations and incident response playbooks.

EO 14028 remains a cornerstone for Zeph Tech’s cybersecurity compliance playbooks.
