SB 1319 Connecticut Senate · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT ESTABLISHING A CYBERSECURITY TASK FORCE.

SB 1319 establishes a state cybersecurity task force to study and develop recommendations on coordinating cybersecurity efforts across government and private sectors. The task force, composed of 23 members including state agency commissioners, legislative leaders, and municipal representatives with cybersecurity expertise, must address eight key areas like state agency coordination, critical infrastructure needs, municipal support, federal collaboration, and public awareness. It is required to submit a final report to the legislature by January 1, 2027, detailing findings and recommendations. This bill directly affects state agencies, municipalities, and private sector entities involved in cybersecurity, but has no fiscal impact as noted in the official analysis.
