Requires New Jersey Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Cell to study cybersecurity infastructure and establish cybersecurity guidelines.
This bill requires New Jersey's Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Cell (NJCCIC) to conduct a 12-month study of cybersecurity infrastructure across all public entities (state/local government) and private businesses operating in New Jersey. It mandates these entities to report cybersecurity incidents and breaches for 12 months during the study. Based on the findings, the NJCCIC must create cybersecurity guidelines within six months of the study's end, requiring all affected entities to implement these guidelines within one year. Failure to comply may result in civil penalties established by the Department of Homeland Security.
