Pentagon would be required to find and remove risky foreign cellular parts from its computer systems.
This bill would require the Department of Defense (DoD) to check all its computer systems and infrastructure. It would look for cellular parts made by foreign companies that could pose a security risk. If found, these parts would need to be removed or replaced to protect military networks and information.
Today, there is no specific law requiring the Department of Defense to conduct a full audit to find and remove risky cellular parts from foreign entities in its systems. If this bill passes, the Pentagon would be required to start such an audit within 180 days and then regularly report to Congress on its findings and plans to fix any security risks over the next six years.
