the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;
    3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; and
    4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those 
who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure 
Security Agency Act of 2018 (Pub. L. 115-278) created the Cybersecurity 
and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA). CISA is responsible for 
protecting the Nation's critical infrastructure from physical and cyber 
threats. This mission requires effective coordination and collaboration 
from government and private sector organizations. As part of the 
collaboration efforts, CISA receives requests for CISA employees to 
give presentations and speeches at various events.
    This digital collection of information is necessary to ensure an 
efficient and timely process to schedule outreach and engagement with 
CISA stakeholders. This information may be disclosed as generally 
permitted under 5 U.S.C. 522.
    The Speaker Request Form will be the first point of contact between 
CISA and the public to initiate CISA speaking engagements. The form 
will be available on <a href="http://www.cisa.gov">www.cisa.gov</a> and any member of the public can 
submit a request for a CISA employee to speak at an event. The form 
will be used by CISA to track and manage external speaking engagements. 
The information will also be used to schedule and determine the most 
appropriate CISA speaker based on date, time, location, presentation 
format, and topic. The form collects information regarding the 
requested speaking engagement, e.g., the host organization, the 
speaking topic, agenda, and additional event details.
    The requested information helps CISA determine whether the speaker 
should attend the engagement and/or how CISA should best prepare for 
the event. The information is used to determine if accepting the 
request will further CISA's mission.
    The CISA Speakers Bureau team will use the information to identify 
a speaker and route the Speakers Request Form to that person for 
consideration. The form will be available on <a href="http://www.cisa.gov">www.cisa.gov</a> as a fillable 
pdf and/or webform and will be submitted to the CISA External Affairs 
Speakers Bureau. The data collected will be stored in an internal 
SharePoint site.
    The CISA Speaker Request Form was previously approved by OMB on 
July 26, 2022, and is set to expire on July 31, 2025. This is an 
extension of an existing information collection.
