H.R. 756, Cybersecurity Enhancement Act of 2013 1 (April 1, 2013)

handle is hein.congrec/cbo11039 and id is 1 raw text is: CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE 0 COST ESTIMATE April 1, 2013 H.R. 756 Cybersecurity Enhancement Act of 2013 As ordered reported by the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology on March 14, 2013 SUMMARY H.R. 756 would reauthorize several National Science Foundation (NSF) programs that aim to enhance cybersecurity (the protection of computers and computer networks from unauthorized access). The bill also would require the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to continue a cybersecurity awareness program and to develop standards for managing personal identifying information stored on computer systems. Finally, the bill would establish a task force to recommend actions to the Congress for improving research and development activities related to cybersecurity. Based on information from NSF and NIST and assuming appropriation of the necessary amounts, CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 756 would cost $504 million over the 2014-2018 period and $52 million after 2018. Enacting the legislation would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply. H.R. 756 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) and would impose no costs on state, local, or tribal governments. ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT The estimated budgetary impact of H.R. 756 is shown in the following table. The costs of this legislation fall within budget function 250 (general science, space, and technology).
