Bills Introduced – 04-18-18

With both the House and Senate in session yesterday there were 58 bills introduced. Of those, one may be of specific interest to readers of this blog:

HR 5576 To address state-sponsored cyber activities against the United States, and for other purposes. Rep. Yoho, Ted S. [R-FL-3]

Two separate things that may draw my further attention to this bill. First, and most obvious to long time readers, I will watch the definitions used in the bill to see if this bill will specifically address ‘activities’ targeted at control systems. Even if control systems are not covered, how the bill intends to ‘address’ the ‘cyber activities’ may still cause me to expand (slightly) my coverage of cybersecurity issues.
