Telecommunications is one of four sectors that are the subject of this particular bill. As you're aware, transportation and other critical infrastructure are also subjects of the bill.
Essentially, what the bill attempts to do is ensure that there are disclosure and transparency when critical infrastructure is under attack or is attacked. There is a duty to disclose the nature and the scope of the attack to one of our agencies. The bill also imposes a requirement for each critical infrastructure unit to have its own plan to address the issues around cybersecurity.
As you may know, Ms. Acan, many cybersecurity incidents go without being reported because of issues around reputation and risk to the brand name. This imposes a legal requirement for the disclosure of specific incidents that will help other parts of our critical infrastructure to take precautions and proactive action.
