After much high-stakes political drama last week, the GOP-controlled US House of Representatives finally passed its version of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which details the Pentagon’s $874.2 billion budget for FY 2024. As has been the case for the past ten years, the NDAA is filled with many military-related cybersecurity provisions.
The Department of Defense said the NDAA budget features “$13.5 billion for cyberspace activities to defend and disrupt the efforts of advanced and persistent cyber adversaries, accelerate the transition to zero trust cybersecurity architecture, and increase defense of US critical infrastructure and defense industrial base partners against malicious cyberattacks.”
