Yesterday with both the House and Senate in session, there
were 63 bills introduced. Of those, two may be of specific interest to readers
of this blog:
HR 5099
To amend the Homeland Security Act of 2002 to establish in the Department of
Homeland Security a fusion center technical assistance program. Rep.
Estes, Ron [R-KS-4]
HR 5131
To improve the effectiveness of Federal efforts to identify and address
homeland security risks to surface transportation, secure against vehicle-based
attacks, and conduct a feasibility assessment of introducing new security
technologies and measures, and for other purposes. Rep. Watson Coleman, Bonnie [D-NJ-12]
I will be watching HR 5099 to see if it includes specific
cybersecurity requirements, particularly for industrial control system security
issues.
I will be watching HR 5131 for chemical transportation
security issues.
