Report would check Coast Guard's cyber readiness for shipping
This bill would require the government's watchdog agency to review the Coast Guard's budget and resources for protecting the nation's shipping industry from cyberattacks. It aims to ensure the Coast Guard has enough funding and staff to handle its growing cybersecurity duties for the marine transportation system. This system supports trillions in economic activity.
Today, the Coast Guard is responsible for cybersecurity in the marine transportation system but is considered underfunded and understaffed for these duties. After this bill, the government's watchdog agency would conduct a detailed review of the Coast Guard's budget, resources, and capabilities for these cybersecurity tasks, providing Congress with findings and recommendations.
