What this amendment would do

SA 6260, submitted by Mr. Schatz, aims to add a new section to bill S. 4784 regarding Coast Guard cyber protection engagement requirements in the Indo-Pacific region.

The purpose of this amendment is to require the Commandant of the Coast Guard to create standardized procedures for scheduling and reporting for each Coast Guard sector in that region.

These procedures must include:

  • Holding quarterly cybersecurity threat coordination meetings with the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, the Department of Defense Information Network, the United States Indo-Pacific Command, and relevant State, local, Tribal, and territorial partners.

  • Requesting support from a Coast Guard Cyber Protection Team at least once every fiscal year for incident response preparedness, vulnerability evaluations, or cyber readiness assessments.

  • Including the findings from the Coast Guard Cyber Protection Team in the annual readiness report sent to the Area Commander for that sector.
