PROBLEM: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``National Cyber Security Leadership 
Act of 2003''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Federal agencies rely on networked computer systems to 
        deliver critical services and information to the American 
        people, including operations related to national defense, 
        emergency services, tax collection, and the payment of 
        benefits.
            (2) There has been an astonishing increase in cyber threats 
        to government and industry in recent years. The number of cyber 
        attacks on Federal Government systems in 2001 was 71 percent 
        greater than the number of such attacks on such systems in 
        2000.
            (3) Cyber attacks can cause irreparable harm in network 
        systems, including the loss or dissemination of sensitive and 
        important data. Cyber attacks can also reduce the confidence of 
        the American people in the integrity and security of the 
        Internet.
            (4) There is mounting evidence to suggest that terrorists 
        view the Internet as a tool to achieve their goals. Government 
        investigators found that al Qaeda operatives browsed Internet 
        sites that offered software describing the digital switches 
        that control power, water, transport, and communications grids.
            (5) The Bush Administration has recognized in its draft 
        National Strategy to Secure Cyberspace ``the pressing need to 
        make federal cyberspace security a model for the nation''.
            (6) All but a few Federal agencies continue to receive 
        failing grades for their cyber security programs.
            (7) Federal agencies must take significant steps to better 
        protect themselves against cyber attacks, including--
                    (A) identifying significant vulnerabilities in 
                their computer networks and the tools needed to detect 
                such vulnerabilities;
                    (B) monitoring for new vulnerabilities in their 
                computer networks, and assessing risks of cyber 
                attacks;
                    (C) testing computers against identified 
                vulnerabilities; and
                    (D) ensuring that computers and networks are 
                adequately protected against such vulnerabilities.

SEC. 3. DEFINITIONS.

    In this Act:
            (1) Chief information officer.--The term ``Chief 
        Information Officer'', with respect to an agency, means the 
        official designated as the Chief Information Officer of the 
        agency pursuant to section 3506(a)(2) of title 44, United 
        States Code.
            (2) Vulnerability.--The term ``vulnerability'', in the case 
        of information technology, means an error or defect in coding, 
        configuration, or installation of such information technology 
        that increases its susceptibility to a cyber threat.
            (3) Other definitions.--Except as otherwise provided in 
        this section, any term used in this Act which is defined in 
        section 3502 of title 44, United States Code, shall have the

SEC. 6. EFFECTIVE DATE; APPLICABILITY.

    This Act and the amendments made by this Act shall take effect on 
the date of the enactment of this Act and shall apply to all aliens 
identified in the terrorist screening database (as such term is defined 
in section 2101(10) of the Homeland Security Act of 2002 (6 U.S.C. 
621(10))) on or after such date.

SOLUTION:
This bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) to make an alien, other than a lawful permanent resident, who is identified in the terrorist screening database inadmissible or deportable on terrorist grounds. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), with the unanimous concurrence of the Department of Justice, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Director of National Intelligence, and the Department of State, may grant an individual a national security waiver to enter the United States temporarily as a nonimmigrant. An identified alien shall be ineligible for asylum, withholding or cancellation of removal, voluntary departure, adjustment of status, or acquisition of legal permanent residency through the registry provisions. DHS shall revise specified regulations implementing the United Nations Convention Against Torture and Other Forms of Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment to: (1) exclude identified aliens from the protection of such regulations, and (2) make such aliens ineligible for withholding or deferral of removal under INA. The bill provides that, with respect to an alien who has not been granted a waiver under this bill and who either is not lawfully admitted for permanent residence or has been granted conditional resident status: (1) DHS shall determine inadmissibility or deportability and issue an order of removal for an identified alien; and (2) in the case of an alien not issued an order of removal, DHS may determine inadmissibility or deportability and issue an order of removal based upon terrorist activity. Such expedited proceedings shall include specified protections for the alien in removal.
