Federal reports would aim to protect high-tech farm equipment from cyber threats.
This bill would require the Departments of Agriculture and Homeland Security to write a public report. This report would cover cyber threats to advanced farm equipment, including risks from certain foreign countries. It would also ask the Government Accountability Office to study how federal agencies work together on this topic. These reports would help find weak spots and suggest ways to keep farmers' technology safe.
Today, no specific rule requires federal agencies to jointly assess cyber threats to advanced farm technology. Also, there is no rule for the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to study how federal agencies work together on this issue. If this bill passes, the Departments of Agriculture and Homeland Security would need to submit a public report on these threats within one year. The Government Accountability Office (GAO) would also need to conduct a study on federal coordination within the same timeframe.
