A bill with bipartisan Congressional support proposes to create a national cyber-security czar who would report directly to the president.
The bill, called the National Cyber Director Act, would create a position to “serve as the President’s principal advisor on cybersecurity and associated emerging technology issues and function as the lead national-level coordinator for cyber strategy and policy,” according to a press release from one of the bill’s sponsors, U.S. Rep. Jim Langevin (D-R.I.).
