## Summary

**This bill would require the NSA's Artificial Intelligence Security Center to build an AI Security Playbook to __protect advanced AI from technology theft__ by nation-state and other highly resourced actors.** The Playbook would map vulnerabilities in advanced AI data centers and models and set out ways to detect, prevent, and respond to cyber and insider threats. - Private-sector AI developers and researchers would get an unclassified playbook of best practices and be engaged through interviews, roundtables, document reviews, and facility visits. - The NSA would identify model components and development insights whose theft would meaningfully advance adversaries. It would also describe when the government would need substantial involvement and outline a hypothetical secure government build with protections like model-weight safeguards, personnel vetting, access controls, counterintelligence, and emergency plans. - The Director would report progress to the House and Senate intelligence committees, with an initial summary in 90 days and a final report in 270 days that includes an unclassified version suitable for private-sector sharing and may include a classified annex.
