A bill to amend title 10, United States Code, to designate the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Cyber Policy as principal staff assistant to the Secretary of Defense on matters within the responsibility of the Assistant Secretary, and for other purposes.

Sponsored By: Senator Rounds, Mike [R-SD]

Introduced

Summary

Direct reporting and direct communication authority for the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Cyber Policy. This bill would make the Assistant Secretary the principal staff assistant to the Secretary of Defense on cyber policy. It would require the Assistant Secretary to report directly to the Secretary without any intervening authority and allow that official to communicate views on cyber policy directly to the Secretary without needing approval from other Defense Department officials. The change preserves the Secretary's ultimate authority over the Department of Defense.
