Strengthening Cyber Resilience Against State-Sponsored Threats Act

This bill would require the Department of Homeland Security, through its Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, to create a joint task force within 120 days with the FBI, the Attorney General, and other federal agencies. The task force would coordinate efforts to detect, analyze, and respond to cyber threats to U.S. critical infrastructure from hackers sponsored by the government of the People's Republic of China, including the group known as Volt Typhoon. It would send Congress classified reports and briefings, starting within 540 days and then yearly for 5 years, with an unclassified summary posted online. The task force would end 60 days after its final briefing and would be exempt from certain federal advisory committee and paperwork laws.
