Specifically, it requires the SBA to report annually to Congress on (1) an assessment of SBA's information technology (IT) and cybersecurity infrastructure; (2) a strategy to increase such infrastructure; (3) a detailed account of SBA's IT equipment or interconnected system or subsystem of equipment manufactured by an entity that has its principal place of business in the People's Republic of China; and (4) any SBA cybersecurity risk or incident that occurred during two years before the report, including SBA's action to respond to or remediate it.
