What is TSA Pipeline Cybersecurity Directives and who does it apply to?

TSA Pipeline Cybersecurity Directives is a compliance framework from United States with 10 domains and 26 controls. The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Pipeline Cybersecurity Directives (Security Directive Pipeline-2021-01 and -02, revised 2023) establish mandatory cybersecurity requirements for owners and operators of hazardous liquid and natural gas pipelines designated as critical. Issued following the Colonial Pipeline incident, the directives require cybersecurity implementation plans, incident reporting, and specific cybersecurity measures. It is used by organisations to establish and maintain compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements.

What does TSA Pipeline Cybersecurity Directives actually require?

TSA Pipeline Cybersecurity Directives has 26 controls organised across 10 domains. The largest domains are TSA Security Directive: Assessment and Assurance (6 controls), TSA Security Directive: Critical Cyber System Protection (5 controls), TSA Security Directive: Governance and Reporting (4 controls). Each control defines specific requirements that organisations must implement to achieve compliance.

If I already comply with another framework, how much of TSA Pipeline Cybersecurity Directives do I already cover?
