question:
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.

        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

answer:

This bill extends the Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Act of 2000 through FY2017, including provisions concerning secure payments to eligible states, territories, and counties containing federal land.  The bill: (1) sets forth special rules for state and county payments for FY2016, and (2) requires all FY2016 payments to be made within 45 days of enactment of this bill.  No funds made available to eligible counties under such Act may be used in lieu of, or to otherwise offset, a state funding source for a local school, facility, or educational purpose.  The merchantable timber contracting pilot program is repealed.  The bill extends through FY2019 the authority under such Act to initiate special projects on such federal lands and certain county activities.
