The U.S. power grid underpins national security, public safety, and economic stability, but faces growing cyber risks from vulnerabilities in industrial control systems, remote access, and poor cyber hygiene. Despite its critical importance, current policy remains fragmented and reactive. This paper proposes a dual policy approach to strengthen grid cybersecurity: enhanced information sharing between government and private utilities to improve threat detection and response, and standardized cyber hygiene practices to reduce common attack vectors. For long-term resilience, a Unified National Cybersecurity Framework is recommended to align existing NERC, IEC, IEEE, and NIST standards, eliminate regulatory overlap, and adapt to evolving threats. Together, these policies offer both immediate and sustainable improvements in safeguarding the nation's most vital infrastructure.
