§4111 Annual Report by Comptroller General of the United States on Cybersecurity and Surveillance Threats to Congress

Summary

The Comptroller General must send a report to the congressional intelligence committees about cybersecurity and surveillance threats to Congress. The first report was due within 180 days after December 20, 2019, and a new report must come at least once each year. Each report must give counts of cyberattacks and spying or surveillance incidents that hit Senators, Representatives, Delegates, the Resident Commissioner, and their immediate family or staff when private messages or other private information were lost, stolen, or accessed without permission. To make the report, the Comptroller General must consult with the Director of National Intelligence, the Secretary of Homeland Security, the Sergeant at Arms of the House of Representatives, and the Sergeant at Arms and Doorkeeper of the Senate. The main report must be unclassified, but it can include a classified annex and redactions to protect sources, methods, and personally identifiable information.
