Summary
President Donald Trump has announced the continuation of the national emergency concerning significant malicious cyber-enabled activities, originally declared in 2015. This decision underscores the ongoing threat these activities pose to U.S. national security, foreign policy, and the economy. By extending this emergency for another year, the administration can maintain and potentially expand legal measures to combat cyber threats, which could lead to heightened tensions with foreign entities implicated in such activities. This move is likely to have political implications, as it reflects the administration's focus on cybersecurity as a critical national issue.

Notice of March 27, 2025
Continuation of the National Emergency With
Respect to Significant Malicious Cyber-Enabled
Activities
On April 1, 2015, by Executive Order 13694, the
President declared a national emergency pursuant to the
International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C.
1701 et seq.) to deal with the unusual and
extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign
policy, and economy of the United States constituted by
the increasing prevalence and severity of malicious
cyber-enabled activities originating from, or directed
by persons located, in whole or in substantial part,
outside the United States. The President issued
Executive Order 13757 of December 28, 2016, Executive
Order 13984 of January 19, 2021, Executive Order 14110
of October 30, 2023 (in relevant part), and Executive
Order 14144 of January 16, 2025 (in relevant part), to
take additional steps to address the national emergency
declared in Executive Order 13694. Executive Order
14148 of January 20, 2025 (in relevant part), revoked
Executive Order 14110.
These significant malicious cyber-enabled activities
continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to
the national security, foreign policy, and economy of
the United States. For this reason, the national
emergency declared in Executive Order 13694, and with
respect to which additional steps were taken in
Executive Order 13757, Executive Order 13984, Executive
Order 14110 (revoked by Executive Order 14148), and
Executive Order 14144, must continue in effect beyond
April 1, 2025. Therefore, in accordance with section
202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C.
1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the national
emergency declared in Executive Order 13694.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register
and transmitted to the Congress.
(Presidential Sig.)
THE WHITE HOUSE,
March 27, 2025.
