Information Sharing and Analysis Center
AbbreviationISAC

An Information Sharing and Analysis Center (ISAC) is a organization that provides a central resource for gathering information on cyber and related threats to critical infrastructure and providing two-way sharing of information between the private and public sectors.[1][2]

Sector ISACs began forming in 1999, subsequent to the May 22, 1998 signing of U.S. Presidential Decision Directive-63 (PDD-63), when "the federal government asked each critical infrastructure sector to establish sector-specific organizations to share information about threats and vulnerabilities."[3] Decision Directive-63 (PDD-63) was replaced by Homeland Security Presidential Directive 21 in 2013.

Europe[edit]

European Energy - Information Sharing & Analysis Centre (EE-ISAC)[6] is a network of private utilities, solution providers and (semi) public institutions such as academia, governmental and non-profit organizations which share valuable information on cyber resilience to strengthen the cyber security of the European Power Grid.

India[edit]

In India, the Information Sharing and Analysis Center (ISAC) operates as an independent non-profit organization that works closely as Public-Private-Partner (PPP) with the apex nodal agency for cyber security, National Critical Information Infrastructure Protection Center (NCIIPC), designated under the IT Act Law 2000.

[21] With the growing concern for cyber threats in the blockchain and cryptocurrency ecosystem, we have seen the wide-spread adoption of SEAL-ISAC as well. [22]
