Digital Economy Cybersecurity Advisory Act of 2025
Introduced Feb 21, 2025 by Rep. August Pfluger
It's waiting on a committee vote to reach the full chamber. Most bills never leave this stage.
This bill establishes a Digital Economy and Cybersecurity Board of Advisors within the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA).
The board must provide the NTIA with recommendations for (1) technical cybersecurity best practices to drive economic growth while securing information and communications networks; (2) policies to support the development and implementation of cybersecurity practices with respect to the internet and information and communications networks; (3) policies that promote security and resilience to cybersecurity incidents; and (4) policies to remove barriers to trust, security, innovation, and commercialization; among other topics.
The board must be composed of between 5 and 25 members, each of whom must have appropriate cybersecurity expertise. The NTIA must ensure board members provide balanced representation among specified sectors and positions, including chief cybersecurity officers, individuals who operate or maintain communications networks, software and equipment vendors, and individuals who operate or maintain internet applications. Board members must serve without compensation.
The board must terminate four years after the bill’s enactment.
