Bill > HR5658

This bill, the "DHS Roles and Responsibilities in Cyber Space Act," requires the Secretary of Homeland Security, in coordination with the Director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), to submit a report to Congress on the roles and responsibilities of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and its components in responding to cyber incidents. The report will review how DHS's cyber incident response plans are utilized, explain DHS's roles and responsibilities in the federal government's response to cyber incidents, identify the authorities used in this response, and provide recommendations to further clarify DHS's roles and responsibilities in cyber incident response. The bill aims to enhance the security and resilience of critical infrastructure by leveraging CISA's role as the lead federal coordinator for securing critical infrastructure across sectors and its ability to facilitate cross-sector coordination to address cybersecurity risks and incidents.
