In Memory of Samantha Jennings-Jones
Samantha “Sam” Jennings-Jones worked in the Office of the National Cyber Director and was
the first staffer assigned to work on the National Cybersecurity Strategy Implementation Plan.
Through her dedication to public service and the cybersecurity mission, she built the initial list of
initiatives that flowed from the Strategy and developed the template for this novel document.
Tragically, Samantha died after being struck by a car on March 30, 2023, four weeks to the day
after the release of the strategy and before she could see the impact of her efforts.
This Implementation Plan is dedicated to her memory.
