Named IPv6 Considerations for TIC 3.0, the document was issued in line with Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Memorandum 21-07, which mandates CISA to enhance the Trusted Internet Connections (TIC) program to ensure Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is implemented within federal IT systems.

The new IPv6 guidance is meant to provide information on IPv6 itself, to inform agencies of their responsibilities in regard to OMB M-21-07, to share security considerations regarding the protocol and the TIC 3.0 security capabilities, and to raise awareness on IPv6 security features.
