This bill establishes a committee led by the National Cyber Director to coordinate and simplify cybersecurity rules across federal agencies. The committee will develop a framework within one year to identify overlapping, contradictory, or burdensome cybersecurity requirements and create common minimum standards that apply across sectors, while allowing for sector-specific rules where needed. The bill requires federal agencies to consult with the committee before issuing new cybersecurity requirements and includes a pilot program where at least three agencies will test harmonized rules on regulated entities to demonstrate whether the approach works effectively. The legislation also requires the committee to submit annual reports to Congress and does not expand any agency's existing regulatory authority. No specific funding is allocated in the bill, though the National Cyber Director is tasked with providing administrative support to the committee.
