H.R. 2331 would require the Small Business Administration (SBA) to report annually to the
Congress on the state of its information technology (IT) and cybersecurity systems, the
methods it could use to improve cybersecurity, any IT equipment or systems it has that were
produced by an entity doing business principally in China, and any recent cybersecurity risks
or incidents and subsequent responses. H.R. 2331 also would require the SBA to report all
cybersecurity risks or incidents to the Congress as they occur and to notify the individuals
and small businesses affected.

Under current law, the SBA is required to submit an annual performance report to the
Congress that includes information concerning agency cybersecurity efforts. In addition, the
Federal Information Security Modernization Act of 2014 requires federal agencies, including
the SBA, to report on the effectiveness of their information security policies and practices
each year. Although H.R. 2331 would impose new reporting requirements upon the SBA, the
work required to fulfill most of those requirements would not be significant because the SBA
already collects most of the information needed in those reports.

On April 23, 2019, CBO transmitted a cost estimate for S. 772, the SBA Cyber Awareness
Act, as ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship
on April 1, 2019. The two bills are similar and CBO's estimates of their cost are the same.

The CBO staff contact for this estimate is David Hughes. The estimate was reviewed by
H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
