The House and Senate both continued to work in Washington
yesterday and 44 bills were introduced. Two of those bills may be of specific
interest to readers of this blog:
HR 4903 Latest Title: Making
appropriations for the Department of Homeland Security for the fiscal year
ending September 30, 2015, and for other purposes. Sponsor: Rep
Carter, John R. [TX-31]
S 2500 Latest Title: A bill to
restrict the ability of the Federal Government to undermine privacy and
encryption technology in commercial products and in NIST computer security and
encryption standards. Sponsor: Sen
Walsh, John E. (D,MT)
I have already
discussed the probable provisions of HR 4903 as it proceeded through markup
in the House Appropriations Committee.
The Senate bill may or may not contain provisions that
specifically apply to control system security. If it does there will be
continued coverage of the bill in this blog.
