CBO expects that, under the bill, CISA would provide that information on an agency website to help nonfederal entities protect themselves and their systems from terrorist threats. On the basis of information from CISA regarding similar information sharing programs, CBO estimates that it would cost $6 million in 2021 to develop and disseminate security guidance, training modules, and fact sheets. CBO expects that the department would need 13 new employees by 2022, at an average salary of $150,000, to communicate with the critical infrastructure community and to review additional materials for the website. In total, satisfying that requirement would cost $14 million over the 2020-2025 period, CBO estimates. The bill also would authorize CISA to train state and local officials to assess risks to critical infrastructure through a one-year pilot program. Using information on the costs of similar training efforts, CBO estimates that it would cost $5 million to develop the curriculum and materials for the pilot program. If CISA chose to continue the pilot program after one year, costs would be higher than CBO estimates. Satisfying the bill's reporting requirements would cost less than $500,000 over the 2020-2025 period.
