United States. Government Publishing Office
This is the November 29, 2023 hearing on "Safeguarding the Federal Software Supply Chain," held before the U.S. House Subcommittee on Cybersecurity, Information Technology, and Government Innovation of the Committee on Oversight and Accountability. From the opening statement of Nancy Mace: "Today more than ever, Federal agencies rely on information technology to carry out core functions of government. Digital information systems are used to help provide healthcare to veterans, pay Social Security beneficiaries, protect the homeland, administer our system of justice, and much more. The broad deployment of IT systems creates efficiencies and streamlines the government service delivery process. So, there is no disputing the gains from digital government are real, but so, too, as you all know and why you are here this afternoon, are the risks. [...] The goal is to secure the software supply chain without unduly shrinking the pool of software providers and products available to the government. We do not want to give up the benefits we all gain from software-driven efficiencies, including the savings they yield to taxpayers. That is why we have a representative of the Federal contractor community testifying here today, along with experts on the methods and intentions of cyber threat actors." Statements, letters, and materials submitted for the record include those of the following: James Lewis, Jamil Jaffer, Roger Waldron, and Jennifer Bisceglie.
