The FBI is looking to make sure it has a place in incident disclosure legislation currently being considered by Congress. A Senate bill that is expected to be attached to must-pass defense legislation puts the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) front and center when it comes to reporting requirements.
