The agency would get $470 million to deploy network tools like endpoint detection and response capabilities for federal assets.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, CISA would get $41 million for \u201ccritical infrastructure security coordination\u201d and $116 million to oversee the implementation of the <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/cisa-cyber-reporting-law\/\">Cyber Incident Reporting for Critical Infrastructure Act of 2022<\/a>. Policymakers are expected to release proposed rules regarding when critical infrastructure entities will be required to report cybersecurity incidents later this month.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Under the proposal, CISA would also receive $394 million for its internal cybersecurity and analytical efforts. The suggestion to bolster CISA\u2019s internal defenses comes on the heels of <a href=\"https:\/\/therecord.media\/cisa-takes-two-systems-offline-following-ivanti-compromise\">a report last week<\/a> that CISA suffered a breach carried out by unknown hackers using vulnerabilities in Ivanti devices that the agency had issued a series of <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/cisa-ivanti-integrity-checker-vulnerabilty\/\">warnings about<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the Biden administration seeks $3 billion for CISA, which is an increase of $103 million from the enacted budget in fiscal year 2023, according to the proposal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis budget invests in our homeland security today and lays the groundwork to protect the American people well into the future. It supports efforts to advance the responsible use of Artificial Intelligence across DHS, as well as our work to protect against malicious cyber threats to Federal networks and critical infrastructure,\u201d DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>Under the budget proposal, the Justice Department would expand the FBI\u2019s cyber investigative capabilities with $25 million for cyber response and counterintelligence capabilities. The DOJ\u2019s National Security Division would see a $5 million boost to its work&nbsp;on cybersecurity threats and $2 million to support secure use of artificial intelligence.<\/p>\n<p>Biden\u2019s proposal also seeks additional funding for healthcare cybersecurity efforts at a time when the nation\u2019s hospitals are reeling from a ransomware attack. An <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/ransomware-group-behind-change-healthcare-attack-goes-dark\/\">attack on Change Healthcare<\/a> has crippled segments of the U.S. health care industry, and Monday\u2019s budget includes a series of proposals to bolster the sector\u2019s defenses.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The budget would add $800 million to help \u201chigh need, low-resourced hospitals\u201d cover the initial costs of implementing basic cybersecurity practices and includes a $500 million incentive program for more robust digital defenses. The proposal would add funds to the Department of Health and Human Services\u2019 Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response to assist with the agency\u2019s cybersecurity efforts. Meanwhile, the budget would also add to HHS\u2019s own security with $141 million, which includes $11 million to better protect health information.<\/p>\n<p>The budget includes a smattering of other proposals aimed at improving cybersecurity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The proposal would provide funding to the Department of Agriculture to \u201censure adequate staffing and critical information technology upgrades\u201d and to expand authority to access funding to projects that mitigate vulnerabilities.<\/p>\n<p>The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration\u2019s Office of Automation Safety would also see more funds to \u201caddress vehicle cyber security risks,\u201d as well as AI risks.<\/p>\n<p>The Department of Energy, meanwhile, would see $455 million \u201cto extend the frontiers of AI\u201d by investing in test beds for energy security, national security and climate resilience, in addition to cybersecurity efforts.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The State Department would receive $800 million, a 17% increase, in funding for information technology and cybersecurity. The Treasury Department would also see a $50 million increase for digital security. The Treasury would also see funding to improve the defenses of \u201ccore\u201d federal financial systems by transitioning \u201call mainframe applications to the secure cloud.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The budget would also add additional funding to address workforce challenges via minority-serving institutions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUnder the President and Vice President\u2019s leadership, the Administration has secured tens of billions of dollars in funding for [historically Black colleges and universities] and Minority-Serving Institutions to prepare students to contribute to the future in high-demand and high-income fields, like cybersecurity, engineering, biochemistry, and healthcare,\u201d the budget reads.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the budget would add $10 million in funding to support Violence Against Women Act programs that address cybercrimes, such as stalkerware.<\/p>\n<p><\/body> <\/p>\n<footer class=\"single-article__footer\" readability=\"1.0058479532164\">\n<div class=\"author-card\" readability=\"9\">\n<div class=\"author-card__avatar\">\n<figure class=\"author-card__image-wrap\"> <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"author-card__image\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ddi.mohflo.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/bidens-budget-proposal-seeks-funding-boost-for-cybersecurity-1.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Christian Vasquez\"> <\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><h4 class=\"author-card__name\">Written by Christian Vasquez<\/h4>\n<p> Christian covers industrial cybersecurity for CyberScoop News.
