Bills Introduced – 05-15-18


Yesterday with both the House and Senate in session there were 71 bills introduced (a lot of opioid legislation in the House). Of those, there are three that may be of specific interest to readers of this blog:

HR 5822 To establish a National Office for Cyberspace, and for other purposes. Rep. Langevin, James R. [D-RI-2]

HR 5823 To prohibit Federal agencies from mandating the deployment of vulnerabilities in data security technologies. Rep. Lofgren, Zoe [D-CA-19]

S 2840 A bill to require a strategic plan to improve capabilities of Department of Defense training ranges and installations. Sen. Rounds, Mike [R-SD]

Definitions in the two House-bills will determine whether or not they will be followed here. The NOC bill has the best chance, but the encryption back door bill could include ICS inclusive definitions.

There is an outside chance that the Senate bill actually refers to, or includes, ‘cyber ranges’.
