National Protection and Programs Directorate (NPPD) – The
bill includes $1.638 billion, an increase of $135 million above the
FY2015 enacted level. This funding includes $1.45 billion in fees for
the Federal Protective Service. Cybersecurity efforts, including
protection of civilian Federal networks, are fully supported at $830
million, as is $16 million in cybersecurity pay reform. Additional
activities are funded, including the Office of Bombing Prevention,
priority communications upgrades so that designated calls can be placed
on the most current technology during disasters and emergencies, and an
upgrade to the DHS biometric identification system.
Americans have witnessed the grossly antiquated federal computer system when the Affordable Care Act market was first opened. It is pitiful. The best way to handle cybersecurity is for bidding by private contractors KNOWN to have a track record. I am sure President Obama would invite those that built the ACA computer platform to bid on this problem of the USA.
