The Senate Armed Services Committee has released a summary of the annual defense policy bill for 2021, which includes several recommendations made by the Cyberspace Solarium Commission. For example, it gives the Pentagon’s Principal Cyber Advisor more responsibility related to integration and coordination to ensure that DoD’s cyber policies are coherent and cohesive. The Senate panel’s draft of the NDAA will next head to the full Senate before being reconciled with the House version. The House Armed Services will mark up its version June 22.
