Federal Manager's Daily Report

Rep. Adam Putnam, R-Fla., chairman of the technology,

information policy, intergovernmental relations and the

census subcommittee, and Rep. Tom Davis, R-VA, chairman

of the Government Reform Committee, have introduced a

bill — HR-4570 — to the Clinger-Cohen Act that

emphasizes computer security in IT investments.


The legislation would update the Act, which requires

agencies to link IT investments and agency

accomplishments, by including Internet-related security

as a requirement in systems planning and acquisition.

It also would provide the Office of Management and

Budget with greater authority to guide agencies on

information security matters.
